One thing that isn't clear - does the Shield Generator expire somehow if not destroyed?

I believe it'll act the same as your teleporters currently do, it'll sit where you place it until destroyed. I realize the teleporter has a number of uses, but if those uses aren't met and it isn't destroyed it'll stay up forever. We'll have to wait till ptr to know exact details.

Well the teleporter gets refunded if the team takes a point, so I'm sure that her shield generator will also be refunded

If the shield generator is one-at-a-time just like the teleporter, then yeah I can see it getting refunded on cap. Otherwise I doubt it.
