Just allow guards to wear spear and shield...and give them special options when more than three guardians are in a team!

Maybe I'm a bit ignorant, but you can't really fight with spear and shield - you can only thrust and that's all. Unless you will put away the shield, you won't be able to do anything fancy, like parry etc.

Actually you can...but i agree with limits For example in a formation it works well, but for stabbing and at certain distances only (therefore the formation, because 1 vs 1 your opponent would just go melee). If you doubt it, you can replay or just check some pen and paper rpg rulesets like GURPS (where this issue is very well explained). Of course the size of shield matters too, but AoC does not discriminate between bucklers, small shields and tower shields at all (except when they end up in your chars brain due to clipping...then you know your shield is too big).
What about us poor bear shamans? At least hox can use a talisman (not that anyone I've talked to ever uses one).
Assassins are supposed to be fast and sneaky...ambushing someone while carrying a shield doesn't really fit. Barbarians are masters of the two handed sword technique: did Conan use shields in the stories or just on the movie?
And if you are hitting them low then pulling off their heads when they bend over...where exactly are you going to park your shield?
Frankly I'd like to see Poms made into Paladins and be able to wear at least heavy armor. And a shield.
