| Summary | 0003143: Shields are sized according to wielder but can be wielded by anyone | ||||
| Description | During a test in Arena mode, I created a bronze colossus wielding an Adamantine shield. Upon examining the shield, I discovered that it weighed 88Γ, which would make it 440000 cubic centimeters in volume, equivalent to a 2cm thick circular disc over 5.3 meters in diameter. A shield created on a Troll weighed a much more reasonable 1Γ. Repeating the test with steel, a shield sized for a dwarf or goblin weighs 10Γ, a human-sized shield weighs 12Γ, a troll-sized shield weighs 41Γ, and a bronze colossus-sized shield weighs 3475Γ. If shield size is actually going to vary according to creature size, then it ought to have a size restriction attached to it just like clothing and armor. | ||||
