====Shield Spikes====
These spikes turn a shield into a martial piercing weapon and increase the damage dealt by a shield bash as if the shield were designed for a creature one size category larger than you (see [[Shield Spikes (Weapon)]]). You cant put spikes on a buckler or a tower shield. Otherwise, attacking with a spiked shield is like making a shield bash attack.
An [[enhancement bonus]] on a spiked shield does not improve the effectiveness of a shield bash made with it, but a spiked shield can be made into a magic weapon in its own right.
====Shield, Throwing====
This shield is designed for throwing and has specially designed straps allowing you to unclasp and throw it as a [[free action]]. Tower shields cannot be throwing shields. Neither a shields [[enhancement bonus]] to [[AC]] nor its [[Shield Spikes (Weapon)]] apply on your attack or damage rolls.
