I have to disagree on this one too.  I like it just the way it is -- if
you're low on shields, you have to pound them out of the other guy.  No
whimpy waiting in a corner while you slowly regain your defenses.  And
the meager return for killing someone is acceptable as well.  It means
that if you see your opponent heading for some shields, then you'd
better get there first before you start to attack him.  It makes it all
more exciting.
