Maneuver

MANEUVER Step: Rank + Dexterity Step Action: Yes Skill Use: Yes Requires Karma: No Strain: None Discipline Talent: Swordmaster
When using the Maneuver talent, the character sacrifices his attack to try to avoid attacks made against him. The character must direct the Maneuver talent against one opponent. The character makes a Maneuver Action Test instead of an Attack Test, using the result of the test as his or her Physical Defense for the round even if the result is lower than his normal Physical Defense. If the character avoids all attacks during the round in which he uses Maneuver, in the next round he adds his rank in Maneuver talent to the result of the next Attack Test he makes against the opponent he out-maneuvered. If this attack hits, the character also adds his Maneuver Rank to the Damage Test result.
1st question.
Let's say we are 3 attacking 1 creature.
I got the best Init and I decide to use maneuver against the creature. No luck I got 3 on my roll, 3 is now my new Physical Defense.
The creature attack,he have 2 attacks. I have luck! the 2 attacks target my 2 friends.
Technically I avoided all the attack in the round that I used Maneuver. Does Maneuver activate? Do I absolute need to be targeted?
2nd Question
I sacrifice my attack to do maneuver. Can I still do Second weapon OR Second attack OR use my second attack that I gain with Air Dance?
Technically they are not action. Right? I only sacrifice my 1st "attack"
