You actually have to look at the book pretty closely to realise that most of the magic stuff is just for the swordsage, a monky character class. The abilities of Warblades and Crusaders are quite a bit more grounded (with a slight divine magic touch for Crusaders).I quite like the book, it gives exclusive abilities to fighters (as opposed to feat chains that everybody can follow to a certain degree). The maneuvers are designed (intentionally, I believe) to appear quite flashy, but I don't think they are really that out of whack, they just seem over the top at initially./N</blockquote>
