More Shields

Adds more shields, augmentations, sturdy upgrades; enhances base game shield behavior. New Shields Shield AC bonus Hardness Special Buckler +1 3 You can raise this worn shield if you have at least 1 hand that isn't holding a weapon. Heavy Rondache +1 5 Functions as a Buckler, except the level and the price has been increased from tabletop. Meteor Shield +2 4 This shield has the Thrown 30 feet trait (accepts Returning runes). Caster's Targe +1 3 Allows you to store 3 spell scrolls inside. Once per encounter, you can cast 1 of them if you have a free hand. Fortress Shield +3 (+4) 6 Functions like a Tower Shield. This slows your speed by -10 ft., instead of -5. Shield Modifications Shield modifications allow you to customize your shield. These items can only be attached to shields. Shield Plating increases the hardness of your shield, equivalent to a Sturdy Shield of the same level. Existing sturdy shields on your character are converted to a steel shield with a level-appropriate plating attached to the item. (Uninstalling this mod restores it to a sturdy shield). This subsumes the shield plating from Legacy Weapons. Shield Augmentations are buffed from tabletop because Shield Bashes use a d6 in Dawnsbury Days, and I didn't want to downgrade your Strike damage when adding an augmentation. Instead of picking two traits, you pick one augmentation: Backswing (adds backswing) Forceful (adds forceful) Maneuverable (adds disarm, shove, and trip) Versatile (adds versatile S and P) Base Game Improvements Shield stat blocks. Shields now have an AC, Speed Penalty, and Minimum Strength entry in their SHIELD PROPERTIES section. As a result, the "Tower Shield" trait has been hidden from the UI, and a new "Cover Shield" trait now exists to describe shields that you can Take Cover behind. The trait description of "Shield" is now shorter, by linking to the Raise a Shield action in a tooltip. The Hardness entry now has a new description that includes a tooltip for the Shield Block reac
