My Lizardmen temple guard have the following items from the start.
Hand weapon, Shield, Halberd, light armor.
In most fotos they have halberd + shield. Halberd req's two hands, so my question is how it works with the shield ?

They can use the shields against shooting attacks, but not in melee combat. Modeling-wise, I'd say you're free to show the shields or not.

They won't have any bonus for having the shield in CC. Only against shooting.

Spears are not two-handed weapons.
You will gain the regular armor save bonus from the shield with Spears, however, you will not gain the 6+ Parry Ward Save.

Basically I'll break it down.
Parry save applies only with shield only when using a hand weapon-No special weapons like spears, morning stars
If you have a special weapon and a shield you do get the +1 armor save
If you have a 2handed weapon-great weapon, halbred, flail you cannot have a shield in combat, but you can use a shield (if your army book says you have one or can buy one) to get the extra +1 armor save against shooting.

Thus, After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd

No they have scaly skin (5+) light armour a shield and a halberd.
So a 4+ in CC (scaly + armour) and 3+ vs shooting (scaly + armour + shield).
