Source Pathfinder Player Core 2
Prerequisites expert in Warfare Lore

You are constantly drawing up plans and battle scenarios, assembling strategies and gathered intelligence for later use. When you scout an enemy's position or receive a detailed report from an ally who scouted the enemy's position, if you have a clear indication of the number, position, and identities of your potential foes, you can spend 1 minute to come up with a battle plan that takes such potential factors into account and reduces the role luck plays in the equation.

Roll a Warfare Lore check. As long as the information was accurate and remains accurate when you roll initiative against those enemies, you can use the Warfare Lore result you previously rolled for your initiative roll; if you do, this is a fortune effect.

UncommonGeneralSkill
Source Pathfinder Adventure Path: Hell's Destiny
Prerequisites expert in Warfare Lore

Even if you don't know much about its constituent creatures, you can always recognize a troop's capabilities through features like the formation they move in or even more subtle hints others might miss. You can always use Warfare Lore when you [/act recall-knowledge skill=warfare-lore] to identify a troop. This works like using an applicable Lore to identify a creature. If you're legendary in Warfare Lore, reduce any adjustment to the Recall Knowledge check's DC caused by the troop's rarity by 5.

If you lead a troop, when you successfully use Warfare Lore to identify a troop, that troop takes a –1 circumstance penalty to saves against your troop's offensive abilities until the end of your next turn.

Improvise Strategy One ActionFeat 7


UncommonBravadoConcentrateGeneralMentalSkill
Source Pathfinder Adventure Path: Hell's Destiny
Prerequisites master in Warfare Lore

You're a wild card on the battlefield, inventing unpredictable tactics and surprising foes. You employ one of these strategies, adding either your choice of the auditory or visual trait. Attempt a warfare-lore check against the Perception DC of a creature within 30 feet, after which the target becomes temporarily immune to further uses of Improvise Strategy for 1 hour.


Critical Success The target gains one of the following conditions of your choice until the end of your next turn: Clumsy 1, Dazzled, Off-Guard, or Stupefied 1. The target can end the effect by using either a single action with the concentrate trait to regain their bearings (if your strategy had the auditory trait) or an Interact action to rub their eyes (if your strategy had the visual trait). In addition, the target isn't temporarily immune to further uses of Improvise Strategy.

Success As critical success, but the target is temporarily immune to further uses of Improvise Strategy.

Failure The target is unaffected.

Critical Failure The target sees through the gambit, leaving you off-guard until the beginning of your next turn.
