takw the warlock frame work... make 6-10 at will special exploits that are meant to be spammed (like cantrips they only know like 2-3) I would avoid the 'one is best' that EB is, but even that woudn't be unheard of. Give them a list of abilities to choose from at levels 1-11 that have scaleing by level. They can only pick a few to know, and they can only use 2 per short rest until 11th when they can use 3 and 17th they get 4. build a series of mini feats that either modifier or give a new ability 1/day or 1/sr (like invocations) then give them a few daily powers each 1/day at 11+ (like the arcanas) make 1/2-2/3 purely natural abilites and 1/2-2/3 of what is left super human or super natural, with the final bit being little more then spells by a diffrent name... let each of these "Warblades" choose how magi they are... all before subclassI've been waiting for someone to show how making a superheroic martial could be done.
take the 2 tier subclass 1 at 1st level 1 at 3rd level, the 1st level one is very mundain (like PHB fighters) but the 3rd really specializes.
