[PnP] Shield Hits

[Alex Koponen]

If your AV is high enough to shrug off most ordinary or shield hits 
there is little need for a shield, except against those opponents with 
extraordinary strength and weapon strength bonuses.

Conan had a high enough CEL and DCV that few could hit him before being 
killed.
