Tome of battle Poll

I dont even like my own choice. I dont think its balanced, exactly. IHS and WRT are both busted as written, but with a couple of sanity checks, the material is excellent. Its just what melee classes need, flash and stuff to do.

You left out an option for "I like the Bo9S, but think a few bits are really broken."

Meh... no category was really fitting:
I don't like the flavour, esp. in combination with the art.
I think that ToB-material is slightly ahead the curve (power-wise), but not enough to ban, nerf, or disallow it. I think ToB-material is closer to an optimized character, without optimizing - however, it also has less room to optimize...
I think that the game mechanics are fun, and make combat more interesting.

I like the flavor, and appreciate that only a couple of the disciplines actually seem like Crouching Tiger, where the rest remind me of Swords & Sorcery.

I voted the second option, but this is closer to my opinion. I like the book a lot, think that the classes are ahead of the power curve -not sure how much, in any case, the added flexibility of the maneuvers itself is an increase in power, even discounting any possible increase in damage output- and also there are genuinely broken things there, much like in almost any splatbook.
