Anticoncussion Fields are umbrella-shaped magnetic fields; they work by absorbing kinetic energy. When an object hits the Anticoncussion Fields, the field compresses inward, spreading the energy along the rest of the magnetic field. Likewise, the force of a blast is spread along the magnetic focusers to neutralize the force of the blast. The fields use an enormous amount of energy, but provide outstanding protection.
Anticoncussion Fields increase a Starship's Shield Rating against Collisions. Light Anticoncussion Fields increase the Starship's SR by 50%, Medium Anticoncussion Fields by 75%, and Heavy Anticoncussion Fields by 100%. For example, a Starship with SR 30 would increase its Shield Rating to SR 45 against Collisions.
Anticoncussion Fields require both Starship Shields and Auxiliary Generators to function. Light Anticoncussion Fields require Auxiliary Generators (+2), Medium Anticoncussion Fields require Auxiliary Generators (+4), and Heavy Anticoncussion Fields require Auxiliary Generators (+6).
