There's much the same text in TNE, and I think it comes from MegaTraveller, though I can't find it just now. TNE also allows them to be added to armoured helmets. Both the stand-alone and in-helmet shields cost Cr4,000. TNE's Fire, Fusion, & Steel has a section on cybernetics and it includes psionic shields as head options. A 'hard' shield (that's one where the implant is easily visible) is TL-13, a 'slick' (invisible) one is TL14. They both cost Cr40,000, halved a TL after introduction (i.e. half-price at TL-14 for the hard and TL-15 for the soft). So, there's a once-canon answer. -- Rupert Boleyn <xxxxxx@gmail.com>
