The Splendid Screen is a shield for the Demoman. It is an iron shield with four thick knobs in the cardinal directions, and a large boss in the middle.

Compared to the Chargin' Targe, the Splendid Screen provides halved fire and explosive resistances. However, its charge ability is much more potent; there is no minimum distance required to deliver damage with a shield bash, and a successful charge bash delivers 70% more damage.
