[QUOTE="Hypersmurf, post: 2260164, member: 1656"] "Initiating a Bull Rush: First, you move into the defender’s space. Doing this provokes an attack of opportunity from each opponent that threatens you, including the defender." 1. If you're already in the defender's space, you can't move into it... does that disallow the maneuver entirely? 2. If not, does initating the bull rush still provoke from any other opponents who threaten? "Bull Rush Results: If you beat the defender’s Strength check result, you push him back 5 feet." 3. Which way is 'back'? "If you fail to beat the defender’s Strength check result, you move 5 feet straight back to where you were before you moved into his space. If that space is occupied, you fall prone in that space." If you fail to beat his check, you move 5 feet straight back to where you were before you moved into his space. Again, this suggests that it's required that you actually entered his space from 5 feet away to initiate the maneuver. If not, how can you move five feet 'straight back' and end up where you started? If all of these are somehow satisfied, it's still worth noting that if you fail the Str check, the space you started in is certainly occupied (by the guy you're grappling), so you would end up prone. -Hyp.
