Halbardier is pikeman not commando.He need shielding only in emergency situation so 7 shield skill is enough.

give them access to a house crafted shield like Small Dragon Kite. Voila! A useful class that is actually worth 750K.
I think that house craftable shields is to much.But its a good point that halbardier should bring shields like SKS or LKS

Again, then why is it so acceptable for Pavise to bring shields and shield better than a Commando? I don't understand the reluctance to accept changes to Halberdier but Pavise Champions aren't given the slightest speculation. Why are Pavise Champs the only odd man out who benefit from being so? While Halberdiers and Rangers are worse at everything than both alternatives?

Guy u don't understand , Pikeman its offensive char giving him shield skill would be totally useless who would use shield when on ground lay a good ranged weapon (DB , Twig or ruputer) or the very good slash weapon (naval , jogmuandur etc) Its like giving archer 10 shield skill... I understand giving him a 6 shield skills or 7 and acces to SKS and defender shield. There are 2 good shielder chars and its enough. Also halabardier has acces to better armors than maruder and peltast so makes him high surviveabilty than other pikeman hero classes.
