So,the quick draw shield makes it a free action to draw the shield, and the throwing shield makes it a free action to throw. The Shield Champion archetype says that the shield champion can throw the shield as part of a flurry. Does this mean that the shield champion could, theoretically, throw the shield as a free action during the flurry and get a functional additional attack?

On pg.24 of the ACG, under the flurry, it states "...a brawler has the Two-Weapon Fighting feat when attacking with any combination of unarmed strikes... etc"

The Shield Champion archetype on pg.87 states "a shield champion can throw her shield as part of a brawler's flurry."

Now, it says that the shield proficiency replaces the brawler's weapons proficiencies, which I assume means that the shield champion can flurry with the shield as though it were a monk weapon. (I could be wrong.)

My question is, for the purpose of qualifying for feats like "shield slam" does the "two weapon fighting" from the Brawlers flurry act as an equivalent for the two weapon fighting feat, or would I still have to take TWF?

Also, is there a ruling on how a Shield Champion's shield throwing interacts with equipment enhancements like "throwing shield," which makes throwing the shield a free action?
