Your horse is likely to be hit several times, even if you dodge perfectly. It should be noted that in With Fire & Sword bullets fly too fast to effectively dodge at longer ranges, but they lack the accuracy for this to be a great problem. It can be useful for you and your army to circle Nord armies until they waste all of their Javelins and Throwing Axes. If you are moving at least somewhat perpendicular to them, they will miss nearly every shot. Even if you aren't using a one-handed sword or polearm to use the shield, the shield protects your back.Įnemies with projectiles, rather than leading their target, always aim directly at you. A good tactic to use is to keep a shield in your inventory at all times. Note that if on a horse, blocking does not prevent enemies from hitting your horse. Blocking is a good way for you to prevent being "Lancesassinated" by enemy cavalry, due to the fact that their lance would bounce harmlessly off your shield or be blocked by your melee weapon.

A shield is best for blocking, due to its omni-directional block and its ability to block projectiles, but it shatters after enough hits and enemy archers can sometimes shoot above or below your shield (depending on its size) and hit you, and some shields are vulnerable to penetration from weapons such as crossbows. If you have a shield, you can also block projectiles. This one is obvious, blocking prevents a melee weapon from hitting you. Besides the obvious of wearing really good armor, there are many things you can do to prevent yourself from being defeated.
