Yes, that is what Waste Warriors says about AP and Soft Armor. I assume then
that Force Field acts like Soft Armor except that it always offer
protection. A syker with some luck on his blastin' roll will be very
difficult to harm while the FF remains. Hmmm, if he has no other armor the
attacker's bullets will lose a damage die too since the syker is "unarmored"
AND the FF will still reduce the damage after that. This is interesting, FF
becomes better than having a "real" forcefield (junker or doomsayer variant)
as those can be negated by AP attacks while the protection offered by FF
can't be negated by any(?) weapon.
