PRIVATE FIELD NOTES, Dr. A. F. Kingi, date unknown.
This is ridiculous. We have transformed from a team of skilled scientists into day trippers with test tubes and sample kits. We must set up everything on-site. We haul out equipment, computers, materials. We have these dreadful mobile laboratory trucks that are so generic in design they end up helping nobody do their work.
The latest fieldwork solution is apparently to have us erect giant walls of lead behind which we are supposed to perform direct observation of the latest Anomalies. We must rush out in response to the latest sighting, build these things like we would a snow fort in winter, then hope to get enough readings and data before another EMP shorts everything.
It's utterly ridiculous. We don't even have equipment capable of helping us move and deploy all this other equipment. And, of course, setup takes so long that whatever we hope to catch is often long gone. That, or it has taken far too much of an interest in us for anyone to be able to work safely...

Synopsis
Lead Shielding is dotted at various locations in the Zone, often clustered around Lab Computers and Sodium Vapor Lights in observation setups. It can also be found around Neon Reef, Sap Compressor, and other Anomalies. Shielding is a reliable source of Lead Platelets. Each frame can contain between zero and three panels, which can be either full or decayed. Only the full panels are guaranteed to drop lead platelets, but all panels drop scrap metal.
