Re: OK, I really don't want to sound "ranty" here.
Jeez, relax. If you know the rules so damn well, why do you need us to find the rule that I found in less than 1 minute off the SRD that proves you don't get an AoO. I was only trying to give you an idea on actually using your cinematic in-game using the rules. It had nothing to do with a smackdown. No one was claiming you were an amateur dude. If you took it that way, then that's your deal...no reason to go off on us.

Yeah, I realize the whole off-hand thing and ability to disarm, etc. I already know all the feats in all the splat books. I'm not an amature here. I know the rules pretty damn well. Those are not the issues. This is not about "how to smackdown a duelist" either.
This is a debate strictly about the rule on AoOs agains unarmed attackers, how they interface when still armed and what seems fair as a ruling on this situation.
Not disarming, S&F feats, or disarming.
The last part of my first post was about flavor text and in-character reference to how I picture this type of thing happening. That was it. If you don't recieve an AoO because you are armed when doing it, the flavor text I gave was an effort to describe the reasons for it. If that confused some of you, I am sorry.
Sorry if any of this sounds chiding. I am just trying to keep the discussion on target here.
Thanx so far for your responses.
