One of the biggest issues with shields is that they crumble like crackers to any 2-handed "great weapons".
I agree that weapons such as axes and potentially the falx should be able to break through shields relatively easy.
However, weapons such as 2-handed Swords, menavlions spears, and glaives seem to be very powerful in almost all fields of combat including breaking though shields and armor..
I propose that shields could either benefit from and increase in hit points, increased armor value, or a combination of them both.
I would also propose that 2 handed swords, menavlions spears, and glaives should have a significant decrease to "armor piercing" damage.
What are some other opinions on the state of shields or how they can be improved?
