Fighter: Fighting Styles

You can adopt a particular style of fighting through rigorous training with weapons. You cannot select a fighting style option you already have, even if you later get to choose again. Each time you select a fighting style, you must select a fighting style you do not currently know.

Sword and Board

When you take the attack action, you can make a special melee attack with a shield, a shield slam:

•          Shield Slam. On a hit, this attack deals damage equal to your Strength modifier and is pushed up to 5 feet away from you. For this attack, treat the shield as a simple melee weapon with the crushing property.

You can also make this attack against a creature within 5 feet of you when you are wielding a shield and you use either a reaction with a shield or a reaction using a parry weapon to parry. You must make the shield slam against the triggering creature.
