Dynatrope Hexagonal Defense Forcefield

A localized Kroton defense subsystem in the Dynatrope control room, consisting of a hexagonal forcefield generator and energy beam designed to immobilize and mind-control intruders. Distinct from the Dynatrope’s core power-generation systems, this device was sabotaged by the Doctor using his pocket watch chain in The Krotons Part 2.
