KEEP FIRING!
Ignoring the ineffectiveness of the last pulse you send another into the Guardian. [Marksman 2+1] This shield is really throwing you off... [Shield 3] Hex seems to have made adaptations to the shield and your bolt crackles harmlessly against the shield, dispersing into a harmless lightshow.

Hex Maintain the shield
Weapons fire on the shield was really draining him, and the failed psionic blade had given him a blinding headache. Better to err on the side of caution this time and just stick with keeping the shield solid.

Tarran Smith"Hey, asshole cowards with the shields, yeah, I'm talking to you, I've got a present for you. TAKE THIS!" Fire at the Hex's head.
The Ichneumon is meant for longer range than this, but you have a feeling she's gonna work fine. [Marksman roll 4+1-1 range] The heavy weapon kicks back into your shoulder and the sabot flies true, striping away its outer sheath not a yard from the shield. [Shield roll 5-3 AP round] It punches through and into Hex, [Hex armor roll 3-5] blowing a hole through his chest as well as the wall behind him. [Luck roll 5] A choked yell of pain comes from the room behind the double doors. [Speed reload 4+2] You quickly lock the next sabot into position. [Hex will roll 4+1-2 dying] Despite Hex being all but dead he still manages to maintain the shield.
Hex is mortally wounded and will die at the end of next round.

Independent FighterShoot Tarran
The Fighter watches as Hex gets hit even through the shield, this certainly sets a new priority for targeting. [Quickshot roll 6+1, Confirm critical 4 Vs Tarran armor roll 1, Passive kinetics 2 ] Tarran's victory is short lived as the fighter fires a salvo into him, rending bone and flesh alike. (Tarran -35Hp) [Tarran luck 3] Nothing vital is damaged but Tarran is in serious pain and is bleeding heavily
(Tarran has severe bleeding, -8 Stamina per turn.)

Trol GraneFENRIR IN THE LEADER'S HEAD
Okay, the psionic approach failed, time for the approach you know works. You grab the fenrir from your hip and fire on the Guardian. [Quickshot 2+1][Shield 2] The particle weapon fares better against the shield than Taric's laser weapon, [Guardian armor roll 3+1+2+2 cohesion modifier, shield] but the Fenrir doesn't have a lot of cohesion at this range and the bolt splatters off of the Guardian harmlessly.

Dominique WakemanHmm. Wonder if his shield can block this... Dom thought, putting away the Abassy and drawing her carbine. She was pretty sure it was loaded with acid of some sort. She angled the weapon up slightly in the hopes of making it go over Hex's shield and pulled the trigger.
The hostiles are at the outside of your range but you don't really need to hit them... You unlimber the carbine and loose a spray of an acrid smelling translucent chemical [Quickshot Auto-success] over the shield. The shield is a full half dome to the ceiling but crackles and warps under the chemical, rippling with a thousand different colors. [Hex will roll 5-2-2, Dying, difficulty.] Hex tries his best, and if he wasn't dying you think he might have managed it, but he can't manage to radically alter the structure of the shield in time. Your theory was correct, the shield was meant to stop incoming high-energy objects, and the spray from the carbine overloaded it in seconds.
The shield has dropped. There is a puddle of toxic slime between your group and the enemy.

GuardianPull back, now!
The Guardian watches in horror as the Hex goes down and Dom destroys the shield.
"Ivan, retreat now!" She walks backwards firing a burst from her assault rifle at Dom as she goes. [Quickshot 3] The burst hits, [Dom armor roll 4+1-1] and the rounds are absorbed by Dom's armor.
