Hello all,
I have been watching this thread with a little doubt as to who is right. I looked over the photo of the shield in the first photo. I can see where you both could be right. The bolt on the right has a definite zig-zag where as the one on the left has a more rounded sway to the second and third curves. As well as the bottom bolt on the left.The first switch has a sharper turn though. So who is really right here??? :? ? I and I mean think that perhaps one bolt may have been swayed and one sharp. Who knows for sure,,,,,,,,,,,,nobody dose! Let us face it , it could just be the way the artist wanted to do them. As for the shape of the shield I had posed the question, Could the different shield shapes denote different types of troops? I have yet to hear a reply to this. If I am totally wrong please excuse my ignorance.
