Sword and board


in role playing games in general, the expression “sword and board” refers to using a weapon in one hand and a shield in the other hand during combat, as opposed to using a weapon that requires both hands to wield and use effectively. although the expression uses the word “sword” for aesthetic reasons (the rhyming scheme), the weapon in question can be any one handed weapon.
