Wondering if there's a way to give a bonus to knockdown efforts to those employing a shield relative to the size of the shield?

I think Knockdown is one of the hardcoded feats; Bioware decided not to let builders affect the combat system, so feats, skill and other things that affect them are hardcoded in. There might be a sneaky way to do it using spellhooking (I'm assuming Knockdown fires like a spell which many feats do). You could try to temporarily add an attack bonus to the weapon which the PC is using granting an extra attack bonus which carries over to Knockdown, then remove it at the end.

Keep in mind, I don't know much about the combat feats like Knockdown, so I don't know if adding an attack bonus to the weapon would stack with the attack bonus needed for Knockdown. Maybe one of the senior scripters would know better.

I have seen shields on PWs that grant the knockdown feat as a bonus.

just add th feat to its propeties in the toolset

One possibility would be to give a shield a unique ability that could be targeted on another creature which would give it a temporary reduction in its discipline. (Probably more messy than you were hoping )

I'm not interested in adding the feat. I suppose a discipline mod might work sorta though; I'll have to look at that option.

I recall that someone did a shield rush sort of thing on the vault, some time ago. I did look into it and played around with it a bit, but finally decided against implementing it. One thing to consider would be the size of the shield, in that a larger shield might be more effective for such a use than a smaller one.

Actually it was a charge action, which may give you some ideas of how to implement the shield kd idea:

Darn, why won't it show up as a link, using standard form..arghh!

Hmm, that has some potential - and yeah, I would be modifying based on shield size and bonus.

Thanks
