Module name: Combiner.
Function: merging shields of a selected group of ships together to one shield within a certain range (like a POS bubble.).
How do I envision it:
The logistic cruiser fitted with this module targets the ships that get into a combined group. The logistic cruiser needs to use the combiner on each ship that joins the "shieldmerge" to make it work, imo the logistic cruiser shouldnt be able to run this for very long so he would need to leech energy from others in the bubble.
The effect would be a grand total of the combined shield, if at all possible the hardening should be an average, so the guy not tanking EM really hurts the HAC with 82% EM resistance.
oc. boosting would be for normal value per ship, but adding to the total of shields. Each pilot would see the combined shield as his own as soon as he get's "combined" by the logistic (seems the most logical GUI solution).
biggest possible disadvantage *might* be for armor tanking ships, but I think it will be a minor one and most fleets are mixed anyway.
Please discuss as I am very curious to how people would like this.

well, true about the gankafleet, but if you'd engage such a fleet while being combined yourself, you wouldn't instapop when your called primary. Another positive point would be that it would make escorting a real option while deepspace mining or running cargo...... Now you' re always primary when you're in a hauler (both by NPC and players).
It add a large tactical component to the game. I do see ballancing problems though....

exellent idea! and although there are probably balancing problems(i personally cant see any right now)it would be an interesting addition to the logistics cruiser...the only really bad thing is that the shields might become too uber...though this could be compromised by the numberof ppl the cruiser could lock on to and maybe a penalty for using too many shield boosters at once?
