Here's my contribution to the new weapons.

Lightsaber Shield
Invented by a disturbed Darksider, the lightsaber shield is the ultimate in
defense.  It is made up of four small lightsabers built on a spinning
center, which travel at high speeds.  This makes for a very decent shield.
Item: Lightsaber Shield
Cost: Not Available For Sale
Skill: Lightsaber: Lightsaber Shield
Damage: 6D(if you touch it in action)
Effects:  When used as a shield, it provides one-half cover.  Any shot
striking it is deflected to the side.  If the defender misses his roll by
more than 10, the saber has been hit in the vulnerable center an
deactivates.  If he fails by more than 15, he accidentally strikes himself
with the shield.  Shots deflected can hit others to the user's sides(GM's
discretion).  Striking someone with this shield is a moderate roll, and if
you miss by more than 7, you hit yourself.
