Increase the Fighter's Strength, Dexterity and Constitution scores by 2, and another 2 points at 10th level (max 20). If this would cause an ability to pass 20, the remining points can be assigned to a mental ability score (max 2 per score). In addition, the Fighter rolls 2d20 on all physical ability checks and saving throws and takes the better result; at level 10 this extends to all saving throws.Champion: Starting at 5rd level, the Fighter is a champion who can inspire others to great deeds.  The Fighter's loyal allies add 1d4 to their attack rolls, saving throws and skill checks while in the Fighter's presence or following her plans.  At 9th level this increase to 1d6.Loyal Allies: A creature is a loyal ally if the Fighter's accepts their allegiance, they respect the Fighter, follow her suggestions, and will not or cannot work against the Fighter's best interests.  Fearful underlings can qualify as loyal allies.  If the erstwhile ally betrays the Fighter, they lose this bonus.Protector: At 7th level, once per round the Fighter can move her speed and protect a creature they move adjacent to.  A spell, effect or attack on the creature is blocked by the fighter (possibly pushing the ally out of the way) if physically possible, with the ability redirected to the Fighter; any to-hit rolls or saves must be repeated on the Fighter.A level 11 5e fighter with a greatsword and 20 strength deals 36 damage to a single target (6d6+15); the above fighter deals 40 (10d6+5).  So it actually scales similar to 5e.</blockquote>
