Greetings citizens of Arda, I bring to you a suggestion that may give you aid in your conquest endeavours. I present to you... the Pavise Shield!

A pavise was an oblong shield used during the late 14th to early 16th centuries. Often large enough to cover the entire body, it was used by archers and infantry soldiers.

As many of us have experienced throughout the years, ranged warfare, especially in sieges can be a real pain in the knee. Arrows and bolts whizzing past you in battle, lets be honest here. Building fortifications isn't always the best option during combat. Especially is you are in the middle of an ambush.

That is why the pavise shield would be a great addition to the mod, while you are in battle. If there is no time to take cover or fortify your position, you can plant your pavise shield in the ground and take cover. Or use it in melee if need be. Here is a photo down below incase you haven't seen a pavise shield before.
