-====== Soldier (Advanced Class) ======
-The Soldier is a trained warrior, as good with a gun as he is with a knife or some other melee weapon.  Some soldiers come out of formal military programs or law enforcement academies.  Others acquire their skills on the field of battle.  The Soldier might be a dedicated idealist or a profit-seeking mercenary, a hired gun or a highly skilled adventurer.  In all cases, the Soldier learns how to defeat his enemies, to complete his missions, and ultimately, to survive.
-Select this advanced class if you want your character to be a well-rounded combat expert.  It combines both melee and ranged weapon expertise, preparing the Soldier for whatever situation comes his way.
-The fastest path into this advanced class is from the [[strong_character_class|Strong]] hero basic class, though other paths are possible.
-=====Requirements=====
-To qualify to become a Soldier, a character must fulfill the following criteria.
-**Base Attack Bonus:** +3.
-**Skills:** [[Knowledge (Military) (Skill)|Knowledge (Military)]] 3 ranks.
-**Feats:** [[Personal Firearms Proficiency (Feat)|Personal Firearms Proficiency]].
-=====Class Information=====
-The following information pertains to the Soldier advanced class.
-**Hit Die:**  1d10
-**Action Points:**  6 + one-half character level, rounded down, every time the Soldier attains a new level in this class.
-=====Class Skills=====
-The Soldier’s class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are:
-[[Demolitions (Skill)|Demolitions]] (Int), [[Drive (Skill)|Drive]] (Dex), [[Intimidate (Skill)|Intimidate]] (Cha), [[Jump (Skill)|Jump]] (Str), [[Listen (Skill)|Listen]] (Wis), [[Navigate (Skill)|Navigate]] (Int), [[Spot (Skill)|Spot]] (Wis), [[Survival (Skill)|Survival]] (Wis), [[Swim (Skill)|Swim]] (Str)
-**Skill Points at Each Level:**  4 + Int modifier.
-=====Class Features=====
-The following features pertain to the Soldier advanced class.
-==== Weapon Focus ====
-At 1st level, a Soldier gains the [[Weapon Focus (Feat)|Weapon Focus]] class feature, providing the benefit of the feat with the same name. The Soldier chooses a specific weapon, such as a [[9mm Charge Pistol (Equipment)|9mm charge pistol]] or a [[Metal Baton (Equipment)|metal baton]]. You can choose unarmed strike or grapple as the weapon. You must be proficient with the chosen weapon.
-You add +1 to all attack rolls you make using the selected weapon.
-==== Weapon Specialization ====
-At 2nd level, a Soldier gains [[Weapon Specialization (Feat)|weapon specialization]] with a specific melee or ranged weapon that he also has applied the Weapon Focus feat or class feature to. You get a +2 bonus on damage rolls with the chosen weapon.
-==== Bonus Feats ====
-At 3rd, 6th, and 9th level, the Soldier gets a bonus feat. The bonus feat must be selected from the following list, and the Soldier must meet all the prerequisites of the feat to select it.
-[[Advanced Firearms Proficiency (Feat)|Advanced Firearms Proficiency]], [[Archaic Weapons Proficiency (Feat)|Archaic Weapons Proficiency]], [[Armor Proficiency (Light) (Feat)|Armor Proficiency (light)]], [[Armor Proficiency (Medium) (Feat)|Armor Proficiency (medium)]], [[Armor Proficiency (Heavy) (Feat)|Armor Proficiency (heavy)]], [[Brawl (Feat)|Brawl]], [[Burst Fire (Feat)|Burst Fire]], [[Cleave (Feat)|Cleave]], [[Combat Reflexes (Feat)|Combat Reflexes]], [[Exotic Firearms Proficiency (Feat)|Exotic Firearms Proficiency]], [[Exotic Melee Weapon Proficiency (Feat)|Exotic Melee Weapon Proficiency]], [[Far Shot (Feat)|Far Shot]], [[Great Cleave (Feat)|Great Cleave]], [[Improved Brawl (Feat)|Improved Brawl]], [[Improved Knockout Punch (Feat)|Improved Knockout Punch]], [[Knockout Punch (Feat)|Knockout Punch]], [[Power Attack (Feat)|Power Attack]].
-==== Tactical Aid ====
-As a Soldier becomes more skilled, his leadership abilities increase. Starting at 4th level, a Soldier can use his knowledge of tactics to direct his allies in combat.
-As an attack action, the Soldier provides tactical aid to any single ally (but not himself) within sight and voice range of his position.
-As a full-round action, the Soldier provides tactical aid to all of his allies (including himself) within sight and voice range of his position.
-This aid provides either a competence bonus on attack rolls or a dodge bonus to Defense (Soldier's choice). This bonus is equal to the Soldier's Intelligence modifier (minimum +1), and it lasts for a number of rounds equal to one-half of the Soldier's level in the advanced class, rounded down.
-==== Improved Critical ====
-A Soldier of 5th level or higher knows how to strike more effectively and have a better chance of dealing significant damage with the weapon he has applied weapon specialization to.
-For that weapon, your threat range increases by one. For example, a [[9mm Charge Rifle (Equipment)|9mm charge rifle]] threatens a critical hit on a 20. With this talent applied to the 9mm charge rifle, the threat range becomes 19-20.
-==== Improved Reaction ====
-At 7th level, a Soldier gains a +2 competence bonus on initiative checks.
-==== Greater Weapon Specialization ====
-At 8th level, a Soldier gains greater weapon specialization with the weapon he selected at 2nd level. This ability increases the bonus on damage rolls to +4 when using the selected weapon.
-==== Critical Strike ====
-At 10th level, a Soldier gains the ability to automatically confirm a threat as a critical hit when attacking with the weapon he has applied weapon specialization to, eliminating the need to make a roll to confirm the critical hit.
