i really dont get that shield shit
so you auto-doff the shield every time battle ends but you gotta actively don it every time a new round-based battle starts or it doesnt count?

sorry but thats just silly. i get it takes an action to don the shield again in combat when you have dropped it bc you needed to do something else or youre surprised in a situation when youre not combat ready but I assume when the girls move out they are properly equipped before round based combat starts. theres no benefit for Yulya not donning her shield whenever shes not resting. why would she have ventured into the cave without her shield equipped? thats just saying youre barefoot bc lol you forgot to state you put your shoes on.

so can we please agree from now on that whenever Yulya moves out to fight she has her shield donned? its not even any advantage as it happens before round based combat starts so it doesnt save her an action. its something different if they are ambushed at rest and clearly without shield donned but when moving out to combat it should be a given. everything else is just needless sophism to annoy the player.

also i didnt know you could hide behind your shield to get additional cover apart from +2ap. the more you know.

nvm you stated it here

>All shields offer +2 AC.
>The area of a one handed shield counts as cover up to 50% excluding bucklers. (+2 AC stacking on +2 AC for half cover for the largest one handed shield excluding tower shield)
>A tower shield additionally will offer a bonus +1 AC so a total of +5AC and would need to be as tall as the weilder to gain this.
