Default Shields

I see no rules for shields breaking when blocking heavy weapons which seems OP over parrying. Am I missing something? Does the Nordlond supplement Shields Up have anything?

It is Nordlond only because my license encourages it.

And yes, it has what you need

Cool, I thought it might. Is there an eta on it and Bugstiary arriving on W23? No offense, I'd just like all my gurps in one place.

I can accelerate it. I’ve been busy with other projects but it won’t take long to send them the PDFs. Physical depends on their warehouse space. They’ve been stressed about it in recent memory

That's great news. I'm only looking for pdfs - shipping is way more than just printing for me. How about by tomorrow? I have a game. :)

Heh. On more than one occasion I have driven to Doug's house (we're both in or near the Twin Cities) to pick up a just-published supplement in time for a game (or my DFRPG summer camp).
