I don't have the PHBII so I can't reference the Dragon ShamanFirst a character must be a 5th level character to take the Dragon Disciple (with at least one Bard or Sorcerer level) hmmm. We should keep in mind that the Dragon Disciple only gets med BABNote: I have no Idea what you mean by the Spell-like abilities entry.They both use d12 for HP so we could stick with that.However if you want them to be able to wear heavy Armours you should probably knock the HP down to d10Comparing Rage to Dragon FormRage lasts on round longer1stRage            - +4 Str, +4 Con, +2 morale bonus, -2 ACDragon Form -  +4 Str, +4 Con, +2 AC, -4 dex , bite and claw, Frightful presence, Breath attacKThis is way to much. And really gaining all of these benefits only when in Dragon Form really sucks. I suggest to keep it simple we keep the advancement of # of Dragon forms tied directly to the Barbarian rage advancement ie. +1/day at 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th,20th. as well as having it last the same length (3+Con bonus).If you disassociate the bite/claw and the Frightful Presence and Breath attack from the Dragon form then we can have a little more fun.Dragon Knight abilities1st         Dragon Form 1/day (+4 str, +4 Con, +2 AC -4Dex), Dragon totem2nd         Bite 1d6, 2Claws 1d4 (at will)3rd         Breath Weapon (1d8), Charm 4th         Dragon Form 2/day5th         Bite and Claws magic,6th         Breath Weapon (2d8)7th         Wings (1/day) 8th         DragonForm 3/day9th         Breath Weapon (3d8)10th       Wings (2/day)11th       Greater DragonForm 12th       DragonForm 4/day, Breath Weapon (4d8)13th       Wings (3/day)14th       Summon Dragon15th       Breath Weapon (5d8)16th       DragonForm 5/day, Wings (4/day)17th       Tireless DragonForm18th       Breath Weapon (6d8)19th       Wings (5/day)20th       Dragonform 6/day, Mighty DragonFormBreath Weapon: Once per day. Damage increases every 3 levels. 3rd, 6th, 9th etcWings: the Dragon knight sprouts Dragonlike wings and may fly 1 round per level +Cha modifier, with a manuverability of awerage and a fly speed of 30ft. (the DragonKnight may have both Dragon form and wings active at the same time) Greater DragonForm: Bonus when in Dragon Form rises to +6 Str and +4AC, Con bonus remains +2, dex penalty falls to -2.Mighty Dragonform: Bonus when in Dragon Form rises to +8 Str, +6AC, Con +4, dex penalty remains to -2.Bite and Claws magic: At 5th level are considered magic for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction.Notes: I would probably stick this class with medium armor and d10Hp they seem pretty tough as written. If you want to add blindsense or any other features at smaller gain levels. Definetly add this restriction. Also consider only having one good save.edit- Forgot to add Frightful presence. It depends on how you want it to work. if you want the DragonKnight to be able to use it at will then  . . . probably level 7. If only when in DragonForm then 5th would probably work.</blockquote>
