Martial Monk (alternate base class), choose monk bonus feats from the fighter bonus feat list. Monk bonus feats don't need to meet prerequisites. Grab Weapon Supremacy and Shock Trooper in 2 levels of monk. [DR #310 p45]
Perhaps this is the wrong place for to say this, but I don't think it actually does bypass the prerequisite restriction. The monk feature refers to "these feats": "A monk need not have any of the prerequisites normally required for these feats to select them."
However, the monk feature is called "bonus feat", which only achieves any pluralization by listing a number of specific feats. My case is that the clause applies only to those listed feats.
I realize, however, that this needs more evidence, so I present the other variants, substitution levels, and alternative class features:
Hin Disciple (CoV) repeats the "need not meet the prerequisites" clause, which would be unnecessary if we assumed that that clause carried over to different feats given as options to that feature.
The ECS option doesn't repeat the clause, nor does it need to as Monastic Training, the feat allowed, has no prerequisites.
The Kalashtar substitution level (RoE) actually says "provided he meets the normal prerequisites," which would be bizarre if the original clause was assumed to carry over, as it would result in two present and contradictory clauses.
As a result, I'm led to believe that the martial monk must actually meet prerequisites for the bonus feats. Additionally, for what it's worth, Weapon Supremacy can't be selected as a fighter bonus feat (unless there is an errata which states it can;
the PHB2 itself doesn't give that option in the Special line, nor does it include a [Fighter] tag).
That all said, this thread is still a great resource, and I'm glad it has been brought here.
