IIRC, the "large shield is tower shield" thing is straight out of the old AD&D rules for halfling and gnome characters using "big folk" equipment. (Also, a longsword for a human/elven character is a greatsword for one of them, and so on.)

Also, you just reminded me that - though all the other stock fantasy races are represented - there's no gnome Valkyrie in the old list. I should fix that. There's plainly no height requirement. :)
