Convert reaction to an attack2. Wide critical hit boost.  If they have advantage, this is 18% (just over 1/6) worth of critical hit boost over a normal attack without it.Not enough temporary HP?  At low levels is 3 temporary HP, a high levels is 6.  "an enemy" not the enemy the warlord hurt to get the dice?Maybe roll the dice for the temporary HP, and add charisma?To tighten up balance past "it feels good", we need a formal "damage budget" for burning bonus action and/or dice.  What is the bonus action "worth"?  What are burned dice "work"?Neat.Very cheap in dice.I'm not sure why these are two different features.  They have the same fluff and nearly identical crunch.Form Up should permit non-block formations. "Within 5' or within 5' of another character who qualifies for the Form Up bonus"?I think I wrote this elsewhere, but hits don't cause stuns in 5e.  Creatures with legendary resistances need to be able to shrug off stuns to be balanced against parties.And they cannot shrug off hits.5e assumes hits (from PCs) deal modest damage (5-25), except crits, smites and sneak attack type things.  They don't shut the target down.(You'll note that grappling, as a pseudo-attack, can often provide nasty status conditions (immobalize and with UA feats restrained and with shove a prone) that don't involve saves.  That is why grapple is crazy strong against larger or smaller boss monsters.  Slipping something even stronger than UA-enhanced grapple in here is probably not a great idea for balanced homebrew.)Veteran PoiseYou need to ensure this doesn't give 3x proficiency with expertise.</blockquote>
