On losing attacks: There is no listed action type for swapping between tower shield types. At minimum you should be able to full attack then swap to cover after your round. At maximum munchkin, you can swap shield types every time someone would provoke.

I don't think I've seen one, even this theoretical FAQ quote that supposedly creates any kind of alternate meaning. It looks like even the FAQ explicitly states that the tower shield provides bidirectional cover no matter what you do, and stops AoO's.

Seriously, at this point we're arguing against theoretical FAQ entries. That's just not evidence to a ridiculous extent. Pretty sure this whole issue is just a non-object.
OK, you've hit step 3 of my 6. Keep reading.
