How to use your Warrior shield?
Known the world over as great and brave warriors, the Vikings were highly effective in their attacks and protection.
The Vikings used a highly effective war formation that enabled them to weaken their enemies without suffering major losses. Once their enemies were weakened, they would break their lines and crush them with ease.
This formation is known today as the "shield wall".
In addition, they decorated their shields with runes or animal figures, symbols referring to the Nordic gods. But their aims were also strategic. Indeed, the
round Viking shield being painted, prevents water from being absorbed by the wood, making it much heavier.
