Product information "Elliptical Shield"

The shape of this shield provides excellent cover as you advance side on, or cover for the support units behind you when held horizontally.

You strike your sword against your Elliptical Shield, shouting alongside your legionaries outside the gates of Syracuse. Inside, their people are filled with terror, deafened by your army’s trumpets and noise. Arrows rain down and you and your fellow soldiers form a barrier with your shields.

There is nothing that can stop you. The design of your shield allows you to stand in close formation, advancing on their defenders and dispatching them quickly.

DETAILS
