Serene:
I tested the side shields. They really only work at roughly a 90-degree angle.
Test it yourself in 2-player mode. Make an AC with side shields for player 1. Any AC will do for player 2. In the match, using player 2, shoot player 1. Subtract the damage. Then move to the side of player 1 and shoot him. Subtract the damage. You'll see that the damage was reduced when player 1 was shot from the side. Then, drop the side shields for player 1 and then shoot him from the front using player 2. You'll see that the damage dealt is the same as the damage done even with the side shields.
Anyways, here's the revised version of this AC:
AC Name: Apex
Head: DRONE (0,0,4,6,0)
Core: U3 (0,1,3,6,0)
Arms: A72F (0,4,0,6,0)
Legs: LF71 (0,0,7,3,0)
Boosters: GULL (0,0,4,6)
FCS: F73H
Generator: LOTUS (0,8,2)
Radiator: ANANDA (0,0,10)
Inside: None
Extensions: None
Back R: LADON
Back L: None
Arm R: RS
Arm L: HP
Hanger R: None
Hanger L: 69H
Optional Parts:
AMINO
ES
EC

CODON
