I just figured I would add my +1 to this request. It's all in title :

Shove should cost an Action.

I am tempted to add the following requests.

  • The shove-distance should be 1.5m (5ft). Or perhaps depend on the Strength of the shover.
  • It should be possible to Shove-to-prone, in addition to Shove-push.
  • When a character is able to make multiple attacks with their Attack action, they should be able to replace one of them by a Shove.
