Default Re: Shield frequencies

Exactly. Wierd thing is that's not how it's explained in ST. Can't remember where I saw it, but it's mentioned somewhere that the the damage the ship takes even when it's shields are up is some sort of energy feedback effect. Which always seemed silly to me. I mean, in several hundred years of using shields, did no one think to isolate the shield generators from the rest of the ship's systems, thus avoiding having consoles exploding all over the place every time the ship gets hit?
