Stupid, but correct answer.
Can you improve on ironhands while wearing a shield. Not unarmed defense, ironhands.
Can you get a bonus (i.e. parry with) your hands using ironhands while wearing a shield.
I say no, Marcus says yes.
TWENTY INTERNETS RIDES ON THE OFFICIAL ANSWER. (hint: just say 'No to both, nt')
.IRONHANDS 'IRON HANDS' Years of study and training in the art of barehand fighting causes bones to strengthen and calluses to develop to such an extent that it becomes possible to parry weapons with your hands.
In addition, this skill allows a significant advantage in landing punches against foes who are less skilled at unarmed combat. Even assassins cannot match a warrior who is dedicated to hand-to-hand combat. *** This advantage requires that both hands be free, and it is much more effective if your foe is also unarmed. ***
Helpfile probably needs to say 'These advantages'
