The Phalanx Soldier is working for most shields with polearms or spears but not with tower shields. A tower shield is still a shield so it should be allowed to work per the Archetype rules IMO.

I did a search over at Paizo to see if there were any comments and there was no discussion by devs one way or the other that I could find. There were community comments stating that a tower shield is a shield and the Phalanx Soldier even gets bonuses to tower shields so they believe the intent is to include them. There is no text specifically excluding them like there is with a shield bash or under class proficiencies.

Thanks in advance for looking at this.
