Just out of curiosity, mainly because I mostly DM (99%), but I joined a local gamestore's Expedition to the Demonweb campaign. 8 others and myself created level 8 characters and showed up for the game. Of the group 7 of us were pretty baseline characters (core or real close to it), while one was a Warblade.
The presence of the Warblade just kind of made the rest of the group feel unnecessary. Every round he was doing some new manuever that overcame DR or did an amazing amount of damage. Hit points were damn near maximum, which put him 50% higher than the half orc fighter and every roll was a 18 or higher, save for the "1" that everyone saw hit the table.
I have not had any of my players use this book.
The DM didn't seem to mind, but I could see other players did (as well as myself).
Is this standard for Book of Nine Swords, or just a bad experience?
(Note, several of us there have years of experience and know how to optimize our characters, but this struck me as a little off.)
