[img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Bug.gif[/img] Mournful of LA Atlantis are depicted with shields, yet they don't get them
They are armed with halberds, but assorted Shamblers (war shamblers, coral guards, mother guards) get huge coral glaives along with turtle shields.
It might be that coral glaives are one-handed code-wise and mournful's 2-h halberds override the shields
No override - they would need a "Bone Shield", which simply seems not to exist.

Here's a quick fix - copy into mournfulfix.dm and drop into your mod directory:

Code:

#modname "Fix: Mournful, Atlantis(LA)"
#description "Gives Atlantis' Mournful the missing Bone Shield"
#version 0.01
#domversion 3.01


===============================================
-- ATLANTIS, Frozen Sea (LA) --
===============================================
-- missing shield for Atlantis (LA)
#newarmor 200
#name "Bone Shield"
#type 4
#prot 12
#def 3
#enc 1
#rcost 2
#end

* Mournful * - FIX
#selectmonster 1703
#armor "Bone Cuirass"
#armor "Bone Helmet"
#armor "Bone Shield"
#end
