Shield Slam is listed as a T.3 Weapon Trick for the Tower Shield, but is not listed as a weapon in the trick itself on pg.264

right thats a fighting style they intentionall "break" rules

Not sure if it was noticed before, but there's an inconsistency in the FAQ/Errata 2.0

FAQ pg.2 Attribute die, "..Yes, ANY time you roll an Attribute die, they can explode."

Errata pg.11 Advanced Maneuver, "..that grants multiple attribute die, only one die may explode."

A:RPG pg.346 Advanced Spells, "..when combining two damaging spells only one of your primary casting Attribute die may explode."

Example Problem: Unbalancing Attack.
As a Base Maneuvre, the Prowess Die will explode (with your Might Die) on the next attack.
As an Advanced Maneuvre, it won't.

Welcome Pedro

Could you maybe take a look at (and answer) some questions on Page 2 of this thread? Thank you

Summarizing:

1) When you combine Flowing Sand (martial maneuver) with another Base Maneuver, does it allow you to make a maneuver attack against each foe instead of a basic attack? If not, how does Flowing Sand combine with other base maneuvers?

If so, how does it combine with TWF maneuvers (like Spinning Strikes and Trap and Cut)

2) When someone is stunned such as through a use of Stunning Strike, how long is the target in that state and granting tactical advantage? Is it to the target's next action?

This, alas, is made false in the Codex of Heroes, where the Provocator Primus Fighting style lists Shield Slam as one of the maneuvers you can do with a Tower Shield.

I think those were intended be the same Attribute Die, only one can explode. Since your (Primary) will always be the same. John

The Advanced Maneuver and Spell rules override any time you roll an attribute die, they can explode rule. If a spell has multiple attribute dice and you explode on more than one, you pick one to start chaining up. Same for maneuvers. In the case of Unbalancing attack the attack with the extra attribute from Unbalancing is restricted to only one die exploding.

Yes & Yes.. you may make your maneuver attack against each target... for example in a playtest I had someone to Flowing Sand/Mighty Strike.

Is it to the target's next action? Yes, until the target's next action... in essence until they can recuperate from the attack.
