Ionic force field

The ionic force field is a terran shielding technology developed for infantry, designed to refuce incoming damage. It was developed in a science facility on Vardona, whose scientists had spent some time on the project when the Tal'darim attacked the city.

The design was replicated from the modifications Egon Stetmann made to his predators. They were redesigned from a combat role for more humane deployment and operation, and removed the need for integration with a cybernetic body.

Game Effect
The ionic force field is a choice for Nova's gadget slot in Nova Covert Ops unlocked after saving the science facility in the mission "Dark Skies."
