hmm i wond how many that knows that you can rotate the shild and do it ?
[BIS]Bionicman: "not many i think after i can tell so far"
[ C `] Moose: "hehe"
[ C `] Moose: "shield rotation is well handy"
[LOD]Demanicus: "Perhaps because this game has the least information for the users then I ever seen for any game"
[BIS]Bionicman: "i can beat the crap out of any ug heavy in 1 on 1 flying the icc h.cruzz if i mannege the shild good"
[LOD]Demanicus: "How do you roate a shield?"
[BIS]Bionicman: "the info is in the faq i wrote it"
[ C `] Moose: "hmm, true i guess, most of what i leanrnt is through playin, not readin"
Cuisinart: "just use the numpad keys Demanicus"
[BIS]Bionicman: "you can turn them on and off to by shift click or shift numpad so one side can get all the power to recharge"
[LOD]Demanicus: "so other words your not really rotating just shutting off the un used sides"
[BIS]Bionicman: "you can do both"
[BIS]Bionicman: "and you dont shot them off just the recharge shild stays at same procentage as it is when you turn it off ofcause it will fall if hit by what ever hit points that strike"
[LOD]Demanicus: "hmm, ok"
22:58:50 [BIS]Bionicman: "but use the numpads with out shift you can rotate them"
[LOD]Demanicus: "Can you double up on a side?"
[BIS]Bionicman: "no but lets say that you have 50 % on the aft and 100 % on front hit num2 some times and you can shift the power from all other shilds to aft until it reach 100 %"
[BIS]Bionicman: "BTW thats one of those keys i use most  "
[BIS]Bionicman: "when icc"
[LOD]Demanicus: "I see"
[LOD]Demanicus: "I'll have to give that a try"
and all should before casting the vote on the resent poll
"Should the ICC shields be increased in strength?"
Rotating Shilds (only on ICC ships)
Pull charge from other shield facings.
Each time you press the key, it draws 10% of the charge from all other shield facings.
NUMPAD8 Front Shields
NUMPAD6 Right Shields
NUMPAD4 Left Shields
NUMPAD2 Aft Shields
NUMPAD5 Full shields
CTRL+S turn on/off all shields
Shift + key turns on/off single selected shield
Example:
Shift + NUMPAD8 or Shift + mouse Click on Front shield icon turn off Front facing shild.

I use it all the time. If you can limit an enemy to just one arc, it's like having alot more damage taking capacity.
