1)Scarlet Throne and weapons:
Scarlet Throne requires you to
a)can you use the maneuvers while wielding a double weapon?
Double weapons are simultaneously two-handed and can be used to two-wield as well.
P.e. when wielding a quarterstaff you can attack 1 time as a two-handed weapon for 1-1/2 damage, ot twf with each end.
If they can be used with this discipline, are there any restrictions?
like can you only use a maneuver when you have two-handed an attack that round and not when you have two-wielded?
What happens with counters which are immediate actions if you have two-wielded that round? You are locked out? You cannot twf the next round?
b)can you use the maneuvers while unarmed, or unarmed+buckler
Unarmed+buckler IS a single weapon. But you can still twf and retain your off-hand "empty", hell, you can even wield a sword+buckler and twf unarmed with kicks!
2)Discipline swap due to DG restrictions
a)i assume this also counts for disciplines of pow prestige classes right? Can you "swap" 2 different disciplines this way?
Example:
i am in class A which has iron tortoise, broken blade, scarlet throne. I swap broken blade for veiled moon. I later go into prestige B, which grants iron tortoise, broken blade, primal fury, scarlet throne. Can i now swap broken blade for thrashing dragon?
b)Does this also counts for class abilities that utilize specific disciplines?
Example:
I am a dragon fury who swaps broken blade for discipline A
dragon fury's "dance of thrashing claws" requires a maneuver from either "broken blade, thrashing dragon, or primal fury". Does it now requires a maneuver from "discipline A, thrashing dragon, or primal fury"?
3)Out of combat stuff
a)Can you keep stances on out of combat, or do you have to activate them at the start of the combat like styles?
b)Can you use maneuvers out of combat? Things like infinite healing maneuvers and etc pop into my mind
4)Zweihander sentinel
specifically this ability:
can you actually use the above ability to "twf" a greatsword+shield bash?
5)Knowledge (martial)
will this be a thing? normal skill? background skill?
6)Warlord save stacking
At the time of publishing for PoW, the faq about how multiple Ability modifiers stack wasn't a thing. Now, the faq clarifies that "if the ability mod is typed (deflection, dodge, morale, etc) it stacks with an untyped bonus (like paladin's saves). But if both are untyped (like paladin with steadfast personality p.e.) then they don't stack.
Now, warlord has those 3 abilities:
according to paizo faq, they should all stack (morale+luck+untyped). But i'm more ambiguous about the "If the character is ever able to add his Charisma modifier to his Will save through use of another ability (for example. the paladin's divine grace) he may only add his Charisma modifier once to his Will save." part of the force of personality ability
7)those for now, i think more will be coming ^^. I'll greatly appreciate anyone with more experience in PoW than me to clarify those things up
Ty in advance
Scarlet Throne requires you to
All Scarlet Throne maneuvers and stances require that the initiator not be using any kind of shield in their off-hand (including animated shields) while initiating a maneuver or while using a martial stance of this discipline. The initiator may use bucklers or rings of force shield or an effect that grants a shield bonus to his AC, just not a physical shield larger than a buckler. He must either have his off-hand empty, or be wielding a weapon two-handed to use this discipline.
a)can you use the maneuvers while wielding a double weapon?
Double weapons are simultaneously two-handed and can be used to two-wield as well.
P.e. when wielding a quarterstaff you can attack 1 time as a two-handed weapon for 1-1/2 damage, ot twf with each end.

4)Zweihander sentinel
specifically this ability:
When wielding a one-handed weapon in two hands or a two-handed weapon, the weapon is treated as a light shield for the purposes of performing a shield bash attack on an opponent. The warder smashes with the butt of a spear-haft, the pommel of a greatsword, or the broadside of her axe. All are essentially the same and are treated as light shields for the purposes of shield- bash attacks or martial maneuvers to be used with a weapon of this type (such as Iron Tortoise maneuvers that require a shield to function).
can you actually use the above ability to "twf" a greatsword+shield bash?
5)Knowledge (martial)
will this be a thing? normal skill? background skill?
6)Warlord save stacking
At the time of publishing for PoW, the faq about how multiple Ability modifiers stack wasn't a thing. Now, the faq clarifies that "if the ability mod is typed (deflection, dodge, morale, etc) it stacks with an untyped bonus (like paladin's saves). But if both are untyped (like paladin with steadfast personality p.e.) then they don't stack.
Now, warlord has those 3 abilities:
While performing a gambit, the warlord may add his Charisma modifier to the d20 check(s) to aid in accomplishing the gambit as a luck bonus.
Unbreakable Gambit
: The warlord attempts to succeed on a Fortitude or Will save against an extraordinary ability, maneuver, power, spell, or spell-like or supernatural ability
Rallying Presence: The sight of a warlord on the battlefield is enough to strengthen the hearts and wills of those who fight beside him in battle. At 5th level, the warlord may add his Charisma modifier as a morale bonus to Will saves versus fear, death effect, or compulsion effects to all allies within 30-ft. of his position. If the warlord maintaining this presence becomes cowed, frightened, panicked or falls prey to a hostile mind-affecting ability (such as one that would stun or daze him), compulsion or death effect, this presence immediately ends.
At 3rd level, the warlord's forceful personality and bold, headstrong nature assist him in resisting the influence of others. Where others use personal serenity, awareness of the world around them, or plain old sensibility, the warlord gets by with endless nerve. The warlord may add his Charisma modifier in addition to his Wisdom modifier to determine his Will save bonus. If the character is ever able to add his Charisma modifier to his Will save through use of another ability (for example. the paladin's divine grace) he may only add his Charisma modifier once to his Will save.
