Cleric/Crusader Help

[Erywin]

Ok so Blarg and I were messing around making some fun characters. We decided to make up a Human Cleric 4/Crusader 1. The plan is to eventually get into Ruby Knight Vindicator.

All Core, Complete, Eberron, Races, UA, DMG 2, PHB 2, XPH, ToB allowed.

Looking for suggestions on Feats.

So far we have a few ideas:
- Stone Power
- Divine Alacrity
- Extra Turning

Any other suggestions, we still havent decided on Stats so if a feat is suggested we can make sure we meet the Prereqs.

Cheers,
E

edit: Note we are most likely decking him out in Full plate and a Tower Shield.

Erywin listed a bunch of books, but feel free to suggest stuff from basically anything non-FR. If it's really good, we might be persuaded to change the sourcebooks allowed.

I'd suggest starting with the feats that give you an extra readied action and the one that let's you heal when you refresh you manouvers. First, you get a much better selection of powers (3 of 5 instead of 2 of 5) and it only gets better (4 of 6 instead of 3 of 6 later). Plus on the start of the 4th round of every combat you get to heal 3+level in hit points as a non-action. Toss in stone power and you really really are the tank-of-tanks. With RKV you can spend a turning attempt and not only recover a maneuver, but also you get the healing earlier (as I recall).

The only real question is one of stances. Do you take the one that let's you heal 2 points? It's really nice, but it is the only stance I know of that gets completely replaced by a higher-level stance....
