Well in star wars there are Particle shields and ray shields. Apparently capital class particle shields are meant to stop micro meteors, asteroids, and other low-energy kinetic objects from harming the ship but do JA against really high energy kinetic projectiles such as proton torpedoes and fighters. So yes, a 600 ton projectile moving at 30,000 meters per second would...do some damage. lol.Back reading to where I left off right now.

Actually your missiles would do just as much damage. Ray shields stop everything but cost a lot of power, it is why they are used as a security measure INSIDE the ship so they are only turned on when required. Particle shields which shield the entire ship while blocking out micro-asteroids and micro-meteors do jack shit against regular missiles as well, as they put out more energy per the area they hit than a micrometeor would in relation.
