Wooden round shield only made sense when the whole game was a bit vikingy, but updates like hussar's wings have already changed that. A kiteshield and maybe also a renntartsche would make sense - would also like to see barding for horses that can perhaps be worn instead of the saddlebags.

Metal shields are heavy. Should be some great agility penalty from carrying it.
