Summary0009809: Shield Breaker
DescriptionThe Shield Breaker is a tough but rather low damage ship that has a huge multiplier against Structural and nothing else (not even Ultra Heavy). While it can be used against regular force field generators it's intended for battles against capital ships that are equipped with shield generators. It doesn't do anything fancy against shields, just straight up high DPS. Its toughness should allow it to act in the range of those capital ships and not die right away and its nicheness (even against capital ships it only takes down the shields, not the hull) should make it feasible to give the ships fairly high durability and a large cap DPS against shields.

I'm not sure the SB would warrant being a bonus ship since it's very situational and having it pop out of an ARS when the AI doesn't use many shielded units would likely annoy players. Maybe an experimental but that might make it too rare to use.
