The shield is made of [[plasteel]] and incorporates a power generator which, when activated, produces a small field of energy around the face of the shield. The shield can take many shapes depending on the [[Chapter]]. The [[Crimson Fists]] use coffin-shaped shields, the [[Blood Angels]] use cruciforms, and the [[Iron Fists]]' shields take the form of armoured gauntlets. It is small enough to be strapped to the arm, leaving both hands free for another weapon to be used.{{Cite This}}
