thats much better, thanks.
yes but in SG they seem to be moderate against both.
besides, the plasma is a directed blast. so the majority of the energy is absorbed. a nuke or explosion only has 50% or so energy transfer to the shield, for a plasma blast it's closer to 90% or 95%.
kinetics VS particle :
particle also depends on beam or pulse. but when the beam is over .5c in speed, you'd get antimatter beams. well it doesn't become antimatter, but it's more or less the same effect. the damage types all get fuzzier the higher the speed is. at .14c the first dialation effects arrive, but it's not even significant up to about .5c. at .9c it's just pure annihilation. or probably even stronger than that.
plasma also depends on design. just a device that tosses hot plasma won't do much. but the type of weapons we've seen do about equal damage to shields and armor.
also, melting armor as i said is overrated.
