sweet idea
I thought of a sweet idea for a character. A two-weapon fighting fighter/ barbarian using two shields.
this is what I want the character to do alot charge the front lines of an enemy and bull rush one guy, then shield bash with both shields to the people on the side of me, then kick the bull rush guy
for feats I know
two weapon fighting, improve unarmed strike, improve shield bash, improved bull rushSpoiler

Re: sweet idea
Sorry, doesn't work. Bull rush is a standard action, not a substitute for an attack, so you can't combine it with a full attack.
Like 4X (aka Civilization-like) gaming? Know programming? Interested in game development? Take a look.

Re: sweet idea
I don't agree that it is a "sweet idea". It just seems wrong unless the creature has more than 2 arms.

Re: sweet idea
You do know that Shield Bonuses do not stack, right? So, you only get the AC from the best Shield.
It is a joyful thing indeed to hold intimate converse with a man after one’s own heart, chatting without reserve about things of interest or the fleeting topics of the world; but such, alas, are few and far between.

Re: sweet idea
He was right. [Edit] Darn, Raum Ninja'd me
Of course, if you use the Facing Rules, you'd still derive some benefit. Otherwise, just use a Heavy Shield Two Handed.Last edited by Matthew; 2007-07-16 at 08:46 PM.

Ooh, or the Symbiotic template (staple yourself to a battleplate-wearing, tower-shield-bearing Bugbear, and you're totally invincible!)

Re: sweet idea
If you had 2 spiked tower shields, could you use one to grant cover, and the other to get the AC bonus?
Aww. Just checked the SRD, and you give up all your attacks if you cower behind it.
Still an amusing image as the fighter puts both half-cylindrical scutum-style shields around him and hides in the "barrel"
