Critical Range Bonus: at 1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th level the tactician gains and extra number to the critical threat range and a +1 bonus to critical roll for all weapons with weapon focus. This ability doesn’t work if you are wearing heavy armor or a shield, and/or under a heavy load.
Staredown: At 2nd level, a tactician becomes able to strike fear into his foes by his mere presence. He gains a +4 bonus on Intimidate checks and can demoralize an opponent (as described in the Intimidate skill description, page 76 of the Players Handbook
Mass Staredown: At 5th level, a tactician has sufficient presence that he can strike fear into multiple foes. Using an Intimidate check, the tactician can demoralize all opponents within 30 feet with a single standard action.
Improved Staredown: At 8th level, even a glance from the hard eyes of a tacticion is enough to strike fear in their hearts. The tactician can demoralize opponents within 30 feet as a move action, not a standard action.
