While holding this tower shield, you have a +1 bonus to AC. This bonus is in addition to the shield's normal bonus to AC.
If the bearer chooses to forego their movement they may instead hunker down behind this nigh indestructible shield. Doing so grants them 3/4 cover until the character moves.
While hunkered down the character may use melee or ranged weapons that can be wielded with one hand only.
It is still possible to attack a character from behind or by using any form of attack that would normally negate cover.
While hunkered down the character does not gain the usual addition to their AC that the shield would provide.
Shields require the Utilize action to Don or Doff. You gain the Armor Class benefit of a Shield only if you have training with it.
Notes: Bonus: Armor Class, Combat, Warding
