A '''shield''' is a piece of personal armour held in the hand, which may or may not be strapped to the wrist or forearm. Shields are used to intercept specific attacks, whether from close-ranged weaponry or projectiles such as arrows, by means of active blocks, as well as to provide passive protection by closing one or more lines of engagement during combat. | A '''shield''' is a piece of personal armour held in the hand, which may or may not be strapped to the wrist or forearm.
