Finally! :D
But flashes with Gate Shield Diffusor? I didn't see that coming, does that mean we can use flashes to break trough SCU shields and overload it? That would be a whole new factor when attacking bases like Cross Roads Watchtower or The Crown :o

i don't think you can pass scu shield with gsd, but pushing for amp station with squad of cloaked gsd flashes and hacking terminals inside to get sundies sounds interesting.

Confirmed: not possible. Tried scu shield yesterday. Also it fills the cloaking slot.

Might our decal go live with that?
