He moves, I hit him, do I then get my free action to re-position the shield after he has moved but before he has attacked?Another possibility is bull-rushing. If I set the shield to 90% cover can I bull-rush as if the shield were not there. It isn't really a wall, it's a piece of my equipment. Visualising it as a LARP tactic it seems to me this would work and would deny the AOO.</blockquote>
