I've been browsing around the internet and these forums but haven't quite found any useful advice on this subject.

So for intimidation, it's described in d20pfsrd
You can use this skill to frighten your opponents or to get them to act in a way that benefits you. This skill includes verbal threats and displays of prowess.

Obviously it's based more on GM's discretion for what I'm asking, I'm just looking for advice on the subject.

Intimidate can be used in many ways like Diplomacy don't you think?
For example. You take a Militia commander, or some diabolic leader. Would said person try to "Persuade" his army to march onto their deaths through "Diplomacy?" Or "Intimidate?" of course it would be intimidate! Strike fear into their hearts. Either they stay and die in battle! or they run like little cry babies to be tortured by their leader later on.

Sooo ya anyway.

I'm looking for examples, as to how players and DM's have used intimidate in combat, not only to scare enemies.. but to instill fear in allies hearts to fight beside them.
