- Er, a meatshield is a shield (i.e. something that blocks attacks) made of meat (i.e. a living creature). In other words, being all but useless, you use them to take damage from foes (and probably get killed in the process) so that your other dwarves don't get hurt as much. --Quietust 14:31, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
