Tower Shield

Tower Shield

Tower Shields are body sized shields meant to be a practical wall of armor, they give a +3 bonus to AC and have the Cumbersome and Shield properties.



Properties


Shield
A shield is typically made from wood or metal and is carried in one hand. Wielding a shield of any kind increases your AC.


Cumbersome
To wield a tower shield, you must have a strength score of at least 16.


Superior Strike


Shield Slam.
You smash your shield forward, throwing a creature within your reach off balance. Make a Strength (Athletics) check contested by the creature’s Strength (Athletics) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) check. If you succeed on the contested check, the creature takes bludgeoning damage equalling a number of d8s equal to your proficiency bonus and, until the end of your next turn, melee attacks against the target have advantage.
