Shields are essential for the gameplay.

Right now there are 2 issues with it:

  1. no real support for defensive weapons #11
  2. shields drawn on gfx screen would interfere with soil manipulation.

Idea - do the shield using sprites.
Problem - Player 6 has got no sprite for themselves...

idea - use 3 shaky missiles to rotate through potential 6 shields (with blinking).
it would look more like a force field, though...

OK, it will be a half-circle (a dome) over the tank.
Passed to execution.
