The Shieldmaidens are comprised of those women who have lost their mates in battle, and grown tired of watching the endless slaughter of war. Knowing they cannot stop the wars of the great mages, they themselves have taken up arms in an effort to prevent as much bloodshed as possible. When leading armies they organize troops defensive formations. Some maidens know basic priesterly magic and can heal wounded on the battlefield.

Summary
Shieldmaiden is a Human Ascendant hero and thus can lead your most powerful stack of Catapults, Crusaders, Knights, Knight Templars, Paladins, Preachers, or High Priests and give that stack an efficiency bonus.
She has a melee attack and is fairly expensive to maintain. She is very popular as a defensive hero. In practice they are usually found leading Knight Templars, as they are the only decent Human barracks unit.
Be careful not to have Shieldmaidens lead preachers from Love and Peace.
High level Shieldmaidens combo fairly well with Priestesses and white healing magic/items.
Outdated Information
Shieldmaidens used to gain Tactics ability at level 16 which was removed for balance reasons.
