Shield

Description
The shield is a round flat object with a large groove that goes around a raised area in the center. The groove's color reflects the shield's color.

Usage
The shield generates an energy field that absorbs incoming projectiles. Painting the block transparent will make it not render nor collide, but the shield field will still be generated as normal. The shield does block the following attacks:
 * Launcher: Not Blocked
 * Cannon: Blocked
 * Tank Gun: Not Blocked
 * Mortar: Not Blocked
 * Sword: Not Blocked


 * Beamer: Blocked

Trivia

 * The Shield is sometimes used as vanity due to it's unique shape, texture, and unique effect.
 * The Shield's graphical effect is a reference to the Anime Neon Genesis Evangelion. It is based on the shield called "A.T. field" which has the same octagonal shape.
