I order that airlocke be taken back to his hospital bed and his gag be tightened. Obviously, his sense of humor is failing. Perhaps he needs a transplant?

I found it! You left for two weeks! I wanna play with it!

The zombies (and the planet they are standing on) are vaporized by an Imperial Terra-class planetoid.

DANGGGGIIIT!!!!!!

<Dejectedly> Fine.... </dejectedly> We'll let him respond to Questor...

My weapon of choice: Trillions of trillions of loyal slaves armed with battleaxes!

As the Board Dictator I order that Consul Sacrifyx be sacrificed! He shall be brought before my throne (Tyralak's stuffed head) and flayed and then fed his own, still living, intestines! Then he shall be defenestrated! Any who oppose my dominion shall be treated so!

Will someone please remove the village idiot?

Be careful, or I'll have you stuffed and use you as a perch! That is a perfectly valid explanation, mine works, too though. Also, attrition has not been accounted for. Depending on how shields work - and both ST and SW shields seem to function as energy absorption capacitors (whatever the mechanism), we have no idea what the total energy that had hit the shields in that scene was. Given the observed ridiculous density of the asteroid field, it is logical to assume that other collisions had occured. If the damage was occuring even slightly faster than the deflector's ability to dissapate it even shields that could shrug off a superlaser blast would eventually collapse. And before you bring up dodging, doing a detailed survey of an asteroid belt that large and dense would almost certainly require highly precise formations to search efficiently. It's not as if Vader seemed like he cared all that much about the cost of finding the Falcon (or more accurately, Luke.)

First of all, I mock your signature's delusions of adequacy and wittiness. SHRIEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The above on the other hand is a very good point. Only an idiot such as Jason would leave an obviously energy intensive system online all the time. Most likely, there are combat particle shields that cover a spherical area, as well as standard particle shields that don't cover areas such as docking bays and airlocks. Who knows? Maybe there is even a reason why the command tower isn't covered by navigational shields - perhaps they introduce a sensor distortion or some other result that would be undesirable in combat? This would also provide a reason for the command tower to have separate shields, come to think of it.

Haven't I put a price on this fool's avatar? I demand it be brought to me in a polished platinum food bowl!

Who are you and who let you into my throne room? I, the BOARD DICTATOR (who outranks Evil Overlords, God-Emporers, and most especially Fleet Admirals), have determined that this thread is a waste of resources, and demand it be locked for locked and its stupidity contained for the good of humanity. I have also decreed, in my position as BOARD DICTATOR (who outranks Evil Overlords, God-Emporers, and most especially Fleet Admirals), that you shall be tried as a war criminal for crimes agains humanity. Praeothmin will prosecute due to his valiant efforts defending you. He needs a break. Mith will defend you, because anyone as deluded as you will need someone skilled as he is in wall of text debating to defend you. Guards... carry out my decrees!

Your point is?

How DARE you! Which do you prefer, defenestration, drawing and quartering, beheading, or exsanguination?

You are again delusional. Perhaps you need some time in the mines?
