Pretty strong card - probably most use on tactics Boromir as he can then do multiple defending duties.
With Beregond he can defend against Hill Troll and other large enemies easily.
and it makes Eleanor (Core) into a defending powerhouse. Just sayin...
This makes Elrohir (TRG) so powerfull since you get acces to Steward of Gondor (Core).

Just added that card in my Elves deck and Elrohir easily become a wall with 6 of defense that can block as much as you want. This I can have by putting Elladan (RtR) and Glorfindel (FoS) as my other heroes, having Arwen Undomiel (TWitW) in play questing and putting Steward and gondorian shield on Elrohir.

I use a very similar combo but two handed:

Cloak of Lorien and Elven Mail can make him into even more of a wall =)

Beregond only needs this shield to become a 6 Def. With a few other Gondor specific cards, he becomes a monster defender.
