So far I've had no crashes. As you can see from the pic in my first post I was fighting the shielded Sathanas for over 13 minutes!

Sweet...next question. How hard is it to take down the shields on some of those? Do fighters have any chance?

Depends on the capship and no with the big destroyers but fighters can pass through the shields. But you can set your own strength depending what you need it for

I wonder if a Helios wouldn't even make a dent on the Sathanas' shield...

Nope and it hurts at close range so don't hit the shield with a helios at close range.
I thought I was inside the shield but was on the edge and fired a Helios at one of its beam turrets, the bomb hit the shield about 150m from my bomber.

So fighters can fly inside the shield radius and attack the hull without having to damage the shield? If so, PERFECT!

Shields now mean I'll have to redo the GTTC Warrior. It has no shields, and its torpedo does very little damage to shields. It's too obselete now. Time to start messing with things again

Would it be possible to make a torpedo which can go straight through the shields? If so I may put PHASE shields on my capships in the Wing Commander mod through which only torpedoes can travel. MWAHAHAHA

That one's a toughy. AFAIK only beams can bypass shields.

Sorry about the repeat host. Either HLP forums or my comp were kinda hosed for a bit, and although the topic cound increased, my post didn't appear.   Will download as soon as I'm back on a fast connect and tell you what I think.
