Its hard enough trying to find a sane DM who will let you take that for +2 LA.Blackguard......is meh. Seriously just.......meh. The spell selection totally sucks. You dont even get divine favor. And it is totally not worth it to be a fallen paladin for the extra abilities. The sneak attack is pants as well......generally you need high speed for flanking, and blackguards will most likely be using heavy armor, or med at best.Lich and Vampires are insanely overpriced templates that no one in their right mind will use.Creating undead tends to be fairly useless in a standard adventure. Unelss you want to go around sacking cities, appropriate CRed encounters will rip throad your undead "army" in no time, the effort involved is totally wasted.Nearly all evil options seem to be specifically aimed for NPCs.Even vile damage! Your aim is to KILL THE DAMN THING, not to injure it with unhealable damage and run off. Its for the DM to throw encounters at the PCs aimed at hurting them one bit at a time. So goes for "recurring" BBEGs like liches/vampires.</blockquote>
