So when say Cirion blocks do I roll 4 die to double his attack. Or 3 for plus one.

Double your attacks while shielding. P.74 of rulebook

Ok here's a hypothetical if mounted Boromir charged in and blocked it would be 6 die then?

I don’t think mounted units can shield, but I assume Boromir on foot can shield with 6 dice?

Why would he be shielding if he is charging? (...bit off more than he could chew???)
I don't know if I am reading your question right but, ...you cannot shield if your mounted.

Really you can't shield while mounted .So the shields are just for +1 defense. A stats boost only. Its just a hypothetical if I don't ask it will happen I a game.

You do get the +1 Def. if your guy is not already equipped with a shield.
Furthermore, if you do not have a shield, you cannot shield.

So no shielding when mount is what im asking .And if so when the rider is knocked of his mount the shielding rules go back to normal?

No shielding when your mounted. yep.
Lost your mount, you have a shield, ...shielding? yep.
