It gives you the extra attack, refreshes on a short rest you do not get the other benefits though, it also doesn't require concentration or a drawback and it doesn't get interrupted. Some of the other warlordy things are combining the various warlord things on various classes into one class. The Bravura is kind of on hold as I am having trouble working out how to make it work that well in 5E, the other 2 are a lot easier. Instead of inspiring word they get rallying cry which is bonus action grants a bonus hit dice to be used immediately.  Inspiring one uses bard dice, tactical one uses superiority dice, they get them sooner than bards and BM fighters and they get more of them. I also have been mapping 4E powers to "invocations" using the Warlock chassis as a template. Basic idea is non magical bard, uses warlock template (so you can build your own warlord a'la 4E powers),. The few spells Warlocks know have been replaced with hopefully good class abilities. A lot of the powers are based off 4E using 5E abilities to pull them off (disadvantage/advantage mechanic). Some of the powers use things like the fighter action surge and grant them to other PCs (yes that allows 2 spells a round). Others duplicate some spells in some ways like Greater Invisibility granting advantage to hit/disadvantage to get hit. Its martial so its weaker (PC is not actually invisible) but it also refreshes on a short rest, can't be interrupted but otherwise lasts a minute like the spell. Some of the powers grant skills like the warlock invocations and the U part of AEDU I suppose. Most abilities are short rest and several of them allow attack granting + rider (advantage etc) or are things like grant an action surge (on top of bardic/BM dice). You may not be able to grant attacks every round but you can do it a lot (18 times a day w/2 short rests)+ powers that allow attack granting + rider. The Tactical one focuses on that, the Inspiring one is a bit more defensive/healing/aura and the bravura is the smash face warlord. Some of the "invocations" have requirements limiting it to subclass (a'la pacts for the warlock), Has fighter level ASI If I get around to a magical subclass some of the invocation will be outright magical just like the warlocks so a 1/3rd caster warlord would have the same spell pattern as an EK/Arcane Trickster and get outright magical potions to pick and can cast a real haste later on and be proficient in con saves. Sure the Warlord can't grant at will attacks but they can grant an action surge that is unique and powerful.  In terms of priority I am looking atinspiring/tacticalBravuraHypothetical magical warlord subclass ( 2 or 3 of them?) Not sure if all the 4E subclasses are required or can be folded into the other 3.</blockquote>
