Combat Maneuvers

See Weakness (Iron_Chef)
You know how to spot weakness in your opponents.
Prerequisite: Dex 15, Int 13, BAB +1, Sense Motive 4 ranks.
Benefit: In combat, you can study a single opponent's moves looking for a weakness in his fighting style. Make a Spot check against DC 15. If successful, roll 1d3; the result is the number of rounds it takes you to find and exploit your opponent's mistake. You then receive a +1 bonus on your next attack roll vs. that opponent. After that, your opponent alters his fighting style and you lose your advantage.

Shield Trick (Iron_Chef)
You have been taught an unorthodox fighting style with your shield.
Prerequisite: Dex 15, BAB +1, Shield Proficiency
Benefit: You gain a +1 bonus to Parry whenever you use a shield, but take a -1 penalty to dodge in melee and dodge (ranged). You can switch from using your shield trick to normal shield use (losing the accompanying benefit and penalties) as a free action once per round.
