I need to research shields for some ships, but I don't know where they are. How do you research shields?
Google: galciv2 wiki
There's a good wrirte up there with charts under "shields".
Basically, you have to research:
1) Galactic Warfare, then
2) Space Militarization, then
3) Starship Defenses, then
4) Shield Defense Theory
That gets you Deflectors (first level) with a defense value of one each. Each next level reduces size.
Then you get Shields (first level) with a defense value of two each. Each next level reduces size,
Etc.
(One addendum - some races start with Galactic Warfare and/or Space Militarization. If your race is one of those, or have "bought" that tech in the game race set-up, then you just pick up the Research at the next step.)
