				 Re: OT: Revised Edition Star Trek 
 Various episodes sure do like to throw in the solid-but-limited-charge thing though.

 Bah. Leaky shielding when it gets into the 10% region. |

				 Re: OT: Revised Edition Star Trek 
 Of course, there are also many episodes that use the perma-leaky shielding. 
Shields are almost certainly based on a plotiton field.

				 Re: OT: Revised Edition Star Trek 
 What about the large battles in DS9?  I don't remember seeing shields on anyones ships during them.  I could understand if Dominion ships could penetrate Fed shields, but it didn't seem like there were any on dominion ships. |

				 Re: OT: Revised Edition Star Trek 
 That's because they didn't have the budget for a real space battle.
 Besides, we're not exactly going canon here...

				 Re: OT: Revised Edition Star Trek 
 Canon is good. We just take the majority of the canon, and take out the tiny parts that conflict with the majority. |
