hey hey, im trying to figure out the durability rating and structure for a shield.
Also would be nice to know the rest of the stats.

its meant to be a buckler.

I see in improvised shields a trashcan lid is structure 4... ok, cool.
What durability though? none of the shields seem to have durability listed.

I also would think its have a 1 to armor.

Armory says:
"In close combat, a shield adds to a character’s De-

fense score. If the character chooses not to use a weapon

in combat while wielding the shield, she can figure in an

additional 1 bonus to her Defense as she concentrates

on avoiding harm, hiding behind the shield and using

it to counter attacks.

In long-range combat, a shield isn’t particularly

useful. Bullets punch right through most shields and

into a character’s soft body. Unless otherwise specified

(such as the “Ballistic Shield,” below), shields do not

offer bulletproof protection. However, all shields allow

a user to claim bare concealment. In most cases, ranged

attacks against someone holding a shield up are done

at a –1 penalty."
