What if playing a shield in a desert battle caused a worm to appear immediately and destroy all spice, tokens, treachery cards and possibly leaders.Fremen would NOT be immune to this worm because it's been driven into a frenzy by the shield.
I'm curious how people think this would affect the game balance.
I'm imagining people won't throw away a shield on a whim, but it provides the opportunity for some interesting desert suicide attacks as well as changing the face of typical desert battles - much harder to keep your leaders alive.
Lasgun+shield would take priority over shield+worm.
