'''Shield Space Pirate Troopers''' are [[Pirate Trooper|Pirate Troopers]] that are equipped with standard energy shields from the [[Space Pirate|Space Pirate Organization]]. The shield is resistant to most small-arms fire, such as [[Beam]] weapons.<ref name=Logbook>{{cite|The Space Pirates have developed a man-portable battle shield that is resistant to most small-arms fire. Its portability is its weakness, however. Remove it from the pirate's grip to eliminate its primary defense system.

As most beam attacks will not penetrate the shield's energy, stronger projectiles such as [[Missile|Missiles]] or the [[Hyper Beam]] will dispose of the shield, rendering the target to become a standard Pirate Trooper and take out its scythe weapon.<ref name=Logbook/> The shield's portability is its weakness, and the Pirate's accuracy in offense may be hindered.<ref name=Logbook/> An effective method of disposing of the Trooper's shield is using the [[Grapple Lasso]] to pull it off. The Shield Pirate Trooper's energy can be drained with the [[Grapple Voltage]] or the [[Hyper Grapple]], however unlike [[Shield Pirate Militia]], the Trooper will fight back against its attacker.

'''Assault Shield Troopers''' are Shield Pirate Troopers that excel in melee attacks and wear missile-resistant armor.
