'''Flare Shields''' are rare and specialized systems only understood by the most astute adepts of the [[Adeptus Mechanicus]]. A Flare Shield is a directional electromagnetic flux field generator from the [[Dark Age of Technology]], supposedly from a source best left forgotten. These shields lack anything like the defensive power of a [[Titan]]'s or warships [[Void Shield]]s, but are able to deflect and disperse glancing or diffuse impacts and can reduce the power of a focused strike. Flare shields have the advantage that they can be mounted on much smaller vehicles than void shields, so long as their mounts are equipped with a rapid-cycling reactor of sufficient power such as the Mechanicum-built [[Jocasta]] grav-attack craft and [[Knight]] walkers.{{Fn|1}}
