Counter-Attack  [Fighting Style] by Ed Hastings
You are skilled at parrying your opponents’ blows.
   Prerequisites: Expertise, Base Attack +6
   Benefit: On his action the practitioner of this type of style may choose to forgo attacking and instead attempt to block incoming melee attacks as a full round action. The practitioner may apply each of his attack bonuses to his AC against a single incoming melee attack in succession until he runs out of iterative attack bonuses. Once he is out of iterative attack bonuses the practitioner’s AC reverts to normal. Should the practitioner have attacks left over after all opponents have tried to strike then he may opt to hold onto his remaining attacks to block any further attacks before his next turn in the following round, or take his remaining attacks as he pleases. This may be used in conjunction with Expertise.

Example: if a practitioner had an AC of 20 and his attack bonuses were +15/+10/+5 then versus the first incoming melee attack he would have an AC 35, versus the second and AC 30, versus the third an AC 25 and versus all other incoming attacks (additional melee and all ranged) his normal AC 20.
