Irda Ranger said:I also haven't read the books, so I don't know if Aragorn would be the type to have Whirlwind attack. But those are my thoughts.
Uller said:As for Bull Rush...why not a feat called "Great Bull Rush" (prereq: Imp Bull Rush, BAB +4) that allows you to make an additional Bull Rush attempt after you force one foe back rather than moving with that foe. Then have "Supreme Bull Rush" (prereq: Great Bull Rush, BAB +8) that allows you to keep doing Bull Rushes as long as you succeed to anyone within range. Maybe allow a single 5' step during this process.

Hmmm ... Bull Rush as it stands is a standard attack option, not a Feat that someone has to take.
I think if you have gone to the effort to aquire the Whirlwind Attack feat chain, you could Whirlwind other things ... like Whirlwind Bull Rushes or Whirlwind Trips.

BTW, that has always been one of the more disappointing aspects of LOTR -- if the Nazgul were supposed to be so tough, why'd they end up so wimpy throughout that whole first half of FotR?
Joshua Dyal said:That's one way to look at it, but even in the book, they were more "wait and see" and then "hope everyone is too scared of us to go on" and when everyone went on anyway, they were completely ineffective.
In the appendices, the Witch-king is really scary, while in FotR, he's merely spooky.
