Brash assault
warlord attack 1

Target: one creature

Attack: Strength vs. AC

Hit: "1[W] + Strength modifier damage.
"Increase damage to 2[W] + Strength modifier at 21st level."

Effect: "The target can make a melee basic attack against you as a free action and has combat advantage for the attack. If the target makes this attack, an ally of your choice within 5 squares of the target can make a basic attack against the target as a free action and has combat advantage for the attack."[MP:103]

Brash assault is an at-will power available to warlords at 1st level.

Character optimization notes that this power has a wide degree of variability. The power can range from what's no different than a simple attack, to something more powerful if the enemy monster decides to take the gamble (especially when combined with other feats or combinations that make the ally's attack powerful.)
