Re: Screenies!
Close, but per Endoperez's description above, if the parry makes the difference then the entire protection of the shield is added. So 15 protection, not just 2.
So shields are less useful in melee but better against missiles. Which, considering the likely importance of sacred troops who mostly don't have shields, makes combined arms more attractive.
If there's really no interesting differences between EA & MA Pangaea, then how about something revealing how Barbarian Kings now has a chance?
