While projectile weaponry is generally ineffective against Covenant starship shielding, [[directed energy weapon]]ry can disable shields with relative ease, in much the same manner as Sangheili energy shields. Another way to disable the shipboard energy shields is through the use of a large-scale electromagnetic pulse.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''', page 153</ref> | While projectile weaponry is generally ineffective against Covenant starship shielding, [[directed energy weapon]]ry can disable shields with relative ease, in much the same manner as Sangheili energy shields.
