Level Up (A5E) How does Combat Directives (marshal) work, actually?

[Guiler Luchi]

also i'm pretty sure OP was never asking if you can take ANY action, just any sanguine knot MANEUVER REGARDLESS of action TYPE, and whether that REPLACED or ADDED TO the commanding presence attack. OP can correct me if i'm wrong though

That is exactly what I was asking.

I can't wait until one of my players picks up Marshal so I too can wonder how exactly this works! This has come up in the discord a number of times, so it's not just OP being confused. (if youre in this server you can follow this to one convo, I screencapped a bunch below)
