Galleo_AW_Shields_Back_1.2 is a small cosmetic mod for Mount & Blade: Warband that repositions equipped shields to hang behind the player's back when the weapon is sheathed, instead of on the right pauldron. When the weapon is drawn, the shield disappears from view. With 49 endorsements and last updated in 2015, it's a niche fix for players who prefer a more realistic shield carry.
