From what we have seen so far low tier Ironbreakers will have wodden shield with gromril borders, and in the traditional fashion from the http://uk.games-workshop.com/dwarfs/miniature-gallery/11/ Ironbreaker minis, they will have ornate gromril shields with the many elaborate designs the Dawi use.

What I've seen from a video the Empire Knights shields will be bigger than themselves

This is a discussion on Ironbreakers.
And that video showed an exhagerated shield, rather then how they will really be sized.

There's a screenshot of a later-tired Ironbreaker with a considerably large round shield, almost the size of him.
I want an Ironbreaker's shield to be about the size of his whole torso, and just as wide! :lol:

When I get my shield I want to decorate it with the tusk of the Orcs I kill.:twisted:

Do any races get Tower shields or will they all be Buckler/round shield size?
Always loved the dorf+tower shield+big assed axe combo on Baldur's Gate/Icewind Dale and all that. Best games ever, btw.

Tower shields do not compliment the anatomy of a dwarf, so they all use round shields.
Black Orcs have been shown wielding MASSIVE tall wooden and metal shields, which I guess could be considered "tower shields", and KotBS have tower shields as well.
Don't know about Chosen, though.

Chosen should get a kind of tower shield if they will make them like the chaos warrior regiment models.
The ironbrakes will clearly have round shields and the biggest will maybe cover their hole arm and shoulder. I don't know much but that is what I belive.
