Title: Duelling Shield
Post by: Caz on March 25, 2004, 05:51:08 AM
Here's a challenge.  Here are some stats for those traditional german duelling shields for commoners.  Anyone else care to take a stab at em?  Can be a fun throw in for a game or gladiator type play.

Proficiency: Duelling Shields
                 Poll axe -3
                 Pole arm -5
Move -3, CP -2 (for weapon in other hand, if used)
Reach: Short
2 handed, can use 1 handed for defense only w/one end resting on ground
ATN 8 b/p (some designs can hook as well) DTN 7 (most defense is by eliminating targets, no roll required, or using terrain rolls to dodge behind your shield)
DR ST +1p/b, +1 if stabbing at an opponent on the ground.
