Message: <blockquote data-quote="Shallown" data-source="post: 1860310" data-attributes="member: 1368">I was hoping the warmage would be the fighter/wizard class I wanted but it wasn't. In fact seemd the only fighter/wizard stuff were Prc's in the complete warrior and nadda in complete arcane. I really wanted a core class that filled that niche. So Looking at the warmage I thought with some modifications that it would work. So by changing the spell list but keeping almost everything else It would work. So this is what I came up with.To let you know what I changed and why. Changed skills to be a mix of wizard and fighter.Kept the armor and weapons and added one martial proficiency to be the Blade mages "Signature weapon" so to speak.Upped the Hit die to make them survivable but not challenge the fighter in taht regard. Cleric BaB for the same reasons. Gave them only one good save to balance out the above. Kept the stats for spell casting for the warmage which means the Blade mage has only wisdom as a dump stat needing decent scores in everything else to be a decent Blade mage.Changed the special abilities around to give bonus feats instead of the sudden feats Warmages get, but not quite as many. Changed advanced learning to give some flexibility and individuality to the class. Gave a whole new spell list based on the up close non blasting fighter/wizard. Since they gained HD and BAB I reduced the number of spell choices at each level they had and smoothed out those numbers to lose one choice each level you go up in spells. I only used complete arcane and PHB spells since I didn't have complete divine to reference when I worked on it. I wanted to keep it fairly core as if it appeared in the complete arcane. I will probably check out the complete divine and make adjustements at some point to the spell list. Just haven't had time.
