How would a crossfire shield be used in a big war? I'm thinking if it's hit 3 times, you drop it. What are your opinions about this shield and it's use in combat?

Usually shields don't do much of anything unless your more than 80ft away. And I'm pretty sure with a lot of guns that normally people use, most nerfers can't hit anything more than a car from more than 80 ft away.
I was at a war this summer and we were having a pistol round, and one of the guys pulled out a pretty big shield, and he still got out before me. So if you can reject more than three darts with a crossfire shield, more power to you. But in my opinion, its a lot easier to dodge a dart, than to block it.

I used to have that problem until I got circumcised. 15 pounds later I was able to stand up straight.

Umm. wouldn't dodging a dart mean he does have sweet ninja skills?
Anyway, a crossfire shield is only small so I doubt you could effectively block darts, especially if you strap it to your arm like designed.

Just because he can't dodge doesn't mean hes a ninja, it just means hes not Evil...
Echna, I'd think it would be cool to have these shields. It would be an interesting game if no one started being cheap.

Funny, I made a thread about this a while ago and the consensus was no.

Um, those three posts were about how he prefers dodging over blocking. How did you get "Can't dodge" out of that?
I disagree with the claim that a dart cannot be blocked from less than 80' away. Now, I've never used a shield, so I can't really say this is out of experience, but I think 50' sounds like a reasonable range where one could block a dart. It depends more on what gun you are trying to block. Yeah, "that guy" got out a lot, but he was going against an ERTL pump shotgun and Crossbow.
More important than practicality is legality. The shield was allowed at the war Renegademilitia15 and I are talking about because the guy using the shield was the one who started the war. In most wars, shields aren't allowed, with the exception of the mantaray.
