Thinking about Droideka's and the need for shielding gave me an idea, why not add the shielding to the existing armor modules.
By adding an optional shield generator component to level 5 and level 6 armor schematics (so as not to break existing level 5 and 6 armors) we kill two birds with one stone.
1. We bring back a purpose to level 5 and 6 armor, since currently an Adv Probot with 2 level 4 armor modules maxes out it's armor rating.
and
2. We have a quick and easy way of addressing the shielding needs of the Droideka droid when it's added (I say when, because it's looking extremely likely that it'll be added to our list of droids), since the droid is already going to be component heavy as it is (I get the feeling that Droidekas are going to require a chassis even for the non advanced versions)
