Katana & Shield - Between Tradition & Adaptation (Kenna's Tale).


For a long while, thought of using Katana with Shield made me feel distaste.

In Kara-Tur, Katana Sword is wielded one handed or two handed. There are no shields, just shorter companion sword named Wakizashi.

Why there are no shields in Kara-Tur?

... i don't know, but that's the Tradition.

... i don't want to break Traditions, so avoided shield use so far.


Then thought came to my mind - different nations fight different way. All depends on neighbouring countries, there are regional fighting styles.

... in Narfell, Katana Sword and Big Shield 'just works'.


... i've bought a Fireproof Towershield in Stonepeak (town to North of Peltarch, in Giantspires).

... will see how/if it will help me in fight.
