[cross posting from the forum] Rules Question…
In FBH under Vessels, it specifies which upgrades require reactors. But, under reactors, it also mentions shields. Is this a situation where both are right? Can you have shields without reactors? Can a crewman that assigns a reactor to shields either boost or replenish them after they are damaged?
Answered more completely in the thread, but TL:DR = Shields need reactors.
Good to know and I’ll adjust appropriately. 🙂
