Shield block is a rather fancy name for the art of parrying with a shield. Characters with no shield block skill will not be able to defend themselves
well with a shield. All classes may learn shield block, but only warriors and
clerics are good at it. Beware, flails ignore shield blocking attempts, and
whips have an easier time getting around them. Axes may split shields in two.
