Shield

 is a secondary weapon of the Warlord.

Properties
Warlords can use three different types of shields: Bucklers, which are chest-sized, round shields, Kite Shields, which are torso-sized, triangular shields and Tower Shields, which are extremely large and can shield the Warlord’s entire body. Warlord shields are often decorated with patterns created with a variety of materials, such as wood, iron, jewels and bones.

Bucklers and Kite shields are commonly used by less experienced Warlords, who are still learning to wield their weapons and skills effectively, while experienced Warlords tend to favor the defensive might of Tower Shields.

Not only are shields effective at blocking incoming attacks; they can also be used offensively, to stun, knockback, trip or even flip opponents.
