I think if the PrC offers decent features, it can be a worthy trade-off. Especially considering that at most levels, the marshal simply gets access to more auras, which is a matter of diminishing returns due to the fact that only one minor and one major can be active at once. You get overloaded with auras just like a lot of fighter builds get more feats than they know what to do with around mid-level. At 7th, the major aura gets boosted to +2, and at 8th you get another use of Grant Move Action. After that, it's a long dry spell so I'd consider multi-classing at 9th or 10th. Tactical Solider is a support class, so it meshes nicely with the right build. A Marshal can get the required feats easily enough, since the MHB didn't offer any feats that specifically enhance that class's abilities, and there's been zero support for it in other products (what a friggin' shame that is). The Master of Tactics aura compliments the TS Flanker ability beautifully. This is a tank/support build where you wrap the character in full plate, give him a tower shield, and maybe the Goad feat as well.</blockquote>
