Diamond shields were a type of shield typical of the Shoon Imperium.[1]
Description[]
These shields, whose name came from their typical shape made of four isosceles triangles, were meant to protect the off-hand forearm and upper-arm of a combatant. They were usually reinforced by a 2‑inch-wide (5.1‑centimeter) strip of metal riveted along their edge.[1]
Notable Diamond Shields[]
