No one at GenCon got a look at Shield Finesse?

I'm still interested in trying a Knight to see how well they do as a defender.

I've been scouring the net for mentions of Shield Finesse, and have found nothing. Can no one tell us what Shield Finesse does?

I know the "red box" Fighter is a Slayer, but wasn't there some Dark Sun gaming that used a Knight build?

Shield Finesse means you don't get an armour check penalty for wielding a shield.

The Dark Sun game at Gencon had a Mul character that had the ability.

Not what I was hoping for, but pretty cool anyway.

It's more significant if you're already running around in plate armour, it basically gives you the use of a Heavy Shield without penalty.

Excellent! Thanks!
