Right. I suppose it may work, though it still sounds iffy. Lances aren't actually that useful for anything except piercing, and if he's in close combat with them, he'd have to leave and reenter to get the full effectiveness of his lance. Basically using his shield as an knight would use his horse - go in, stab, retreat, go in, stab, repeat. Doesn't give him that much effectiveness as a defender if he is constantly enterring and leaving combat like that.

I still can't help you with the shield though, so you'll have to wait for Phantom on that I'm afraid.
