====== Using a Shield ======
  * Raise/Lower - A generalised move for larger shields often done because you can't see past them and are just guessing where the next strike will land
  * Block - A more accurate use of meeting the incoming strike
  * Parry - A more skilled use, where you deflect the incoming strike
  * Bash - A shield is a large blunt weapon, why not prove it?
