Improved Shield Bash

Improved Shield Bash (Combat)
You can protect yourself with your shield, even if you use it to attack.
Prerequisite: Proficiency with shields.
Benefit: When you perform a shield bash, you may still apply the shield's shield bonus to your AC.

---

(BAB +6): Any opponents hit by your shield bash are also hit with a free bull rush attack, substituting your attack roll for the combat maneuver check. This bull rush does not provoke an attack of opportunity.
