Note: The final decision of the use of this type of shield on the battlefield is still awaiting sign off by the MTO and MaA.

Irish-Sea Vikings and English warriors may use a 2d curved round shields as long as:

# the shield board has a strict minimum of 5cm (2”) of clearance past the users elbow when gripped. # * it is only curved to a maximum of 10cm (4”) deep.# * it has an authentic sized “Irish Sea style boss” (max diameter of 17cm (6⅔”), including the flange). See shapes and typical dimensions to right.# * it is used by a combatant of warrior status, although the warrior does not need to be wearing a mail shirt (so can be fighting with 2 hits). # * it is not your only round shield at the show. # * it is of good quality overall. Poor or damaged examples will be classed as Unacceptable.
