So with the Mekboy Gargant's Kustom Force Field it says that "once it's shut down it remains so for the rest of the game."

But can you start the game without it on then turn it on in turn two or three? Technically this means it was never "shut down". It can't be actively shut down if it was never turned on.

So by the letter of the rule it seems possible, but maybe having such a powerful shield on turn 3 (likely in the thick of battle) vs turn one (when battle is less intense) could unbalance the game too much so maybe it should be disallowed on that basis.

Thoughts?

Thanks primarch!

So to keep gameplay honest you have to declare that the shield isn't up in the first turn right? I'm thinking it should be committed to during his movement activation so that he can't just get an extra turn of shield if nobody happens to shoot at him.

Right, that's an excellent idea!

Should there be a sentence to such effect in the next version of the rules perhaps?

Perfect answers once again, thanks Primarch!
