That, yeah. But shields do count as shields since small PPBs still ignore them.

My question was: Can you build troops with only shields, and by loading them into the transport in some order, make them get hit first by the militias? I read that it was possible, but haven't managed to do it yet.

I think you must build X ammount of troops with only shields (X being how many you think is nessercary There is no such thing as Overkill (who'll spot the reference? )) And load them on to your trnasport, then load your troops with weapons and they should drop the shielded troops down first and they'll get pounded.

Numerous troop transports loaded with them is the best tactic: superior numbers.
