Decide what to do about shield templates for the block protector

On Reddit, you said that shields were going to be split into a separate mod. You didn't say anything about the block protector, though. I bring this up because its crafting recipe uses shield templates, which other than this, are only useful for shields. What should we do about this? Here's some ideas I thought of:

  1. Move the block protector into the separate mod too (and maybe make it able to protect blocks via shape cards instead of having to select them all)
  2. Leave shields in RFTools after all
  3. Leave the shield template block in RFTools just as a crafting ingredient, and still move the rest of the shield system to the separate mod
  4. Change the crafting recipe for the block protector (could either do it unconditionally, or only if the separate mod isn't loaded, kind of like dimensional shards now)

Thoughts?

I'm personally a fan of either 1 or 4. Will think about this more later though

After thinking about this more, I think option 1 (and adding shape card support to it) is the way to go.
