Shield (physical armor)

A shield was a broad piece of armor carried on the arm that was used as a defense against blows or hurled objects. During the Clone Wars, the riot clone troopers of the Coruscant Guard used a type of shield in conjunction with a security baton. The riot gear used by the stormtroopers of the Galactic Empire also included a shield. The Wookiee warriors of Kashyyyk used wooden shields that had a reverse teardrop shape.
