History's Best Shield! Can You Guess?

Well, well... don't you realize that the quest for THE ULTIMATE thing ever regardless of circumstances is futile? :) But we can at least try to weigh the pros and cons of different designs based on usage (i.e. duels / small melees / large-scale battle). And there sure are many... the Roman Scutum (what DnD would call "tower shield"), Greek Aspis (Argive shield), Viking & Anglo-Saxon round shield, kite shield, heater shield, rotella, Scottish targe, etc. Plenty of variation in shape, size, construction, and emphasis on either protection or speed & mobility. The Viking round shield and custom heater shield are made by Vaughn Morphett, the targe and buckler are from Kult of Athena, and the Gou-Rang is from LK Chen:   / v.m.metalcraft   https://www.kultofathena.com/product/... https://www.kultofathena.com/product/... https://lkchensword.com/gou-rang Trying Out the Chinese Hook Shield (Gou-Rang)    • Trying Out the Chinese Hook Shield (Gou-Rang)   ** Sources / picture credits ** https://archaeonewsnet.com/2017/09/di... https://thornews.com/2017/08/30/resea... https://www.ancient-origins.net/news-... https://combatarchaeology.org/new-stu...    • Authentic Viking Age shield replica put to...   http://myarmoury.com/feature_shield.html https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi... https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi... https://combatarchaeology.org/new-stu... https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi... https://skaldic.org/m.php?p=kenningpa... https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi... ** Music credits ** Outro: "Highland Storm" by The Slanted Room Records https://theslantedroom.github.io/stev...
