Has anyone ever suggested a shield bashing feat?....you know where you have this two handed skill and actually use it as a weapon?.
Ok maybe thats a little over powering as is..but maybe if you used a feat progression as a base? :EG: the twoweapon/ambidexterity feats?
Forgive me if this has been raised before,im getting old and my search-fu isint the best :)

It's not a feat, just a special attack (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/combat/specialAttacks.htm) action.
Shield Bash Attacks
You can bash an opponent with a light shield or heavy shield, using it as an off-hand weapon. See Table: Weapons (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/equipment/weapons.htm#tableWeapons) for the damage dealt by a shield bash. Used this way, a shield is a martial bludgeoning weapon. For the purpose of penalties on attack rolls, treat a heavy shield as a one-handed weapon and a light shield as a light weapon. If you use your shield as a weapon, you lose its AC bonus until your next action (usually until the next round). An enhancement bonus on a shield does not improve the effectiveness of a shield bash made with it, but the shield can be made into a magic weapon in its own right.
