If you want to build a crossbowmen and play a battle you always got hit by a arrow or other throwing weapons. The solution is a Pavise Shield.
What do you think?

Before the recent update, you could carry a board shield on your back and turn around to reload (sometimes they would shoot you in the butt, but mostly arrows stuck in the shield).
I think it's a good idea.
-
excellent idea, can be done with board shield

This would make xbows so much more viable. No more hiding behind trees yay!! PLEASE chadzZZZZ?

I see you guys found my post about the deployable pavise shields on ideas for the next patch :D:D:D

They should be breakable though. Just throwing that out there in case anyone has a mind to forget it.
-
What's the point though? There is already seige shields you can buy and deploy. Do you just want them to be movable?
-
its cool.
-
This looks great, might also be very tactically useful in Strategus , i approve =).

It looks better then 10 siege shield in the map ;)
With this shield you can grab it and deploy it again.

this one is nice and both sides can use it
plus defenders needs deployable wooden spikes :)
cost e.g. 16k as they higher than the blockwall but only 66% hp
it would be also useful in battles as defence against cav (wider and longer)
-
It's a good idea, but cavalry shouldn't get stuck into that, to be honest, a charging courser on top speed would simply crush that shield apart, it should just be some kind of arrow protection.

Looks excellent

good idea ;) hence the deployable spikes to rescue :) lol
-
I want deployable wooden wall segments :D :D :D
-
I'd love something like this :)

OMG cavalry is doomed!

After all the archer/xbow nerfing, I think a Pavise Shield would be just what the doctor ordered

A siege shield is a big thing for the whole team to hide behind, slowing you down while carring it.
A pavise shield is a personal cover, reusable and as light as a normal shield. And its awesome
-
awesome! +1 add it

This.

I would love this being added to board shields. It would make them unique, and an interesting alternative to the overused huscarl shield.

Also a small historical reference to the siege shields we currently have:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantlet
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mantlet)
Just some ideas for models.. if any modelers are out there?
(And another tip, if you want something in cRPG, the chances of something happening is much higher if you contact the devs or modelers of what you want in crpg yourself, and do the research/homework, and then speak to the relevant irc:// members. If you can make it easy for chadz and crew it's more likely to happen. At least that's my experience. And don't PM chadz lol :-)
-
You guys do remember what was asked when the siege shields were added? This. You asked for deployable shields, chadz gave you siege shields.
When god gives you siege shields, you find a new god.

These things would be so awesome ^.^

Since i started crpg i've been wondering why there's no such thing.
Either this, or enabling back shields again would do the trick for me.

You're playing with shields disabled?
-
+1, if it can be destroyed by cavalry bumps :wink:
-
It's not gonna get implemented.
-
Way to shoot down progress Nemeth hehe.
As for the cavalry spikes.
Do that and I expect a small attack boost on cav, seeing that some pug teams already formup the all feared pikewall/schiltrom.
No need for "deployed and consistent" cav traps.
Although for Strategus, its a whole diffrent story. Being that cav keep respawning.
-
Hey that pavisse is sweet! Would love to see it.
-
@Tetris: one of the dev shot me down like that on irc, im just forwarding the message ^^
-
nice thing, even if it is not going to be implemented.
+1, even if I hate dem xbow bastards who always shoot me... :)
-
Did they give a reason or was it just a fu no?
-
It was just a "No", but I wasnt really asking additional questions. I can somehow see why it is unwanted. It would just promote camping and honestly, xbowers are fine without it ^^
-
Meh xbows wouldn't be the only ones who could use it tho but w/e they devs will do what the devs want.
