Psionic Shields and Deep Meson Sites

TML message #5056From bundle 428

2G Scott mentions that having a psionic shield around a deep meson gun site
would be a dead giveaway to a Zhodani attacker, since they could probably sense
the shield.  (I think that this business of sensing shields is correct, but
I've never used psionics in a game...)  This is correct as far as it goes,
but if decoy shields were substantially cheaper than deep sites, it might
not be too bad...

Of course, at the rate of fire of weapons in this game, engaging one real
site and two thousand decoy sites might not take very long.
