    Well, someone found it! Congrats, BOC. It's indeed Napalm Death. The three bands formed were Cathedral, Godflesh and Carcass.

    Your turn, BOC.

    It was the shield indeed but not for this reason. They were not allowed to lose their shield because it was protecting not only the holder but the warrior, who stood beside him as well and therefore it helped to keep the phalanx formation solid. Anyway, you may continue Felinoid.
