Combat styles?

[helixed]

Heya folks

Perhaps someone can spend a few minutes, and explain to me how the combat styles Work?

I've seen a few players use different styles, but appearently none of my chars have the ability.

Are there any prerequisites for being able to use them? If so, what?

Thanks in advance

There are apparently some sort of requirements, but I haven't been able to figure out what they are.

Didn't you say that you had none of these with any of your characters?

According to what I know about your characters, your Monk and your Paladin should each have at least 1 choice besides the generic one. Please check if they do. If not, we need to troubleshoot those characters.

I'd sure be nice if these were available to lower level PCs
