Seeking Feat for Half-Ogre ...

First Post
There's at least one feat out there that will lessen or negate the combat penalties for squeezing, whether specifically for Large creatures or not. Anybody know this feat (or feats), the source, and the exact benefit?

Dragon 326 has Tunnel Rat (Escape Artist 4 for prereq.) which lets each space count as 1 square of movement (instead of 2) and you suffer -2 to attacks (instead of -4) when squeezing.

Races of Stone has Tunnel Fighting (Fighter feat, BAB +1 prereq.) which lets you take no penalties on attack rolls or to AC when squeezing into or through a tight space.
 

BTW, you can only end your turn squeezing in regards to obstacles, you still have to take up four squares when it would inconvenience your alllies.

Squeezing said:
In some cases, you may have to squeeze into or through an area that isn’t as wide as the space you take up. You can squeeze through or into a space that is at least half as wide as your normal space. Each move into or through a narrow space counts as if it were 2 squares, and while squeezed in a narrow space you take a -4 penalty on attack rolls and a -4 penalty to AC.

When a Large creature (which normally takes up four squares) squeezes into a space that’s one square wide, the creature’s miniature figure occupies two squares, centered on the line between the two squares. For a bigger creature, center the creature likewise in the area it squeezes into.

A creature can squeeze past an opponent while moving but it can’t end its movement in an occupied square.

To squeeze through or into a space less than half your space’s width, you must use the Escape Artist skill. You can’t attack while using Escape Artist to squeeze through or into a narrow space, you take a -4 penalty to AC, and you lose any Dexterity bonus to AC.
