It's a prerequisite for Knockdown. However, note that if you use Knockdown to get a free trip attempt against an opponent, you can not then use Improved Trip to get a free melee attack if your trip is successful.
Teknon 01-25-04, 07:26 PM	why is that? im afraid i dont have my books in front of me. because that would be damn cool if i could knockdown, get another hit, and another with expert tactician, because a prone foe is denied dex, right?
horndgod 01-25-04, 07:35 PM	Imp. Trip and Knockdown can't be used together because the Erratta says they can't. Otherwise it would become very unbalanced. And a prone target is not denied his dex bonus, so no Expert Tacticianing.
