"You can use a melee attack with a slashing or bludgeoning weapon to strike a weapon or shield that your opponent is holding."Answer: Nope, because sunder is it's own action.Can you grapple with it? "Starting a grapple requires a successful melee attack roll."Answer: Nope, again because grappling is it's own nightmare.Can you disarm with it? "As a melee attack, you may attempt to disarm your opponent."Answer: Same as sunder.I know you can't feint, full attack, Overrun, bull rush, because those are all described with standard or full-round actions.Answer: Bingo.A good rule-of-thumb I've found is that if it modifies your attack roll (such as Power Attack, fighting defensively, Combat Expertise) or allows for an attack action, then it can be combined with a standard-action maneuver.  If it requires an action in and of itself (Disarm, Sunder, Grappling, etc), then it can't.  Seems to work for the group I play in.</blockquote>
