What shielded bases were there in the books?
I mean, there was the "shield wall", but that was just mountains that protected Arrakeen from the desert.
I haven't read the book in 20 years, maybe there weren't any on Arrakis. But people for sure used them; this Dune wiki says:
So shielded installations must have existed.
It also says that Duncan Idaho sometimes used the threat of the laser-shield interaction to intimidate his enemies; I don't remember that, it must have been in a book I didn't get to.
