Spirited Charge and Critical Hits???

My Cleric has the domain of war, so it would still be a power word spell, because war has 7th - power word blind, 8th - power word stun 9th - power word kill, all do not have saves

Wow, I've always multiplied STR bonus on critical hit too, just not the extra damage dice like flaming or shocking or sneak attack.

I checked the SRD cause i thought for sure i was right... but i wasn't, only base weapon damage is multiplied

?

Where did you find this?

SRD:

Critical Hits
When you make an attack roll and get a natural 20 (the d20 shows 20), you hit regardless of your target’s Armor Class, and you have scored a threat. The hit might be a critical hit (or "crit"). To find out if it’s a critical hit, you immediately make a critical roll—another attack roll with all the same modifiers as the attack roll you just made. If the critical roll also results in a hit against the target’s AC, your original hit is a critical hit. (The critical roll just needs to hit to give you a crit. It doesn’t need to come up 20 again.) If the critical roll is a miss, then your hit is just a regular hit.

A critical hit means that you roll your damage more than once, with all your usual bonuses, and add the rolls together. Unless otherwise specified, the threat range for a critical hit on an attack roll is 20, and the multiplier is ×2.

Exception: Extra damage dice over and above a weapon’s normal damage is not multiplied when you score a critical hit.

Increased Threat Range
Sometimes your threat range is greater than 20. That is, you can score a threat on a lower number. In such cases, a roll of lower than 20 is not an automatic hit. Any attack roll that doesn’t result in a hit is not a threat.

Increased Critical Multiplier
Some weapons deal better than double damage on a critical hit.

Spells and Critical Hits
A spell that requires an attack roll can score a critical hit. A spell attack that requires no attack roll cannot score a critical hit.
 

Well in the end I completely understand critical hits and all multiplier addition, and how spirited charge works (and I even know why addition of multipliers applies) Thank you all again for your input, I like the halfling knight idea, I'm only doing concepts right now, so I will defiantly look into that :D
