She adapts to the situation using a combination of Diamond Mind, Iron Heart and Stone Dragon. They have DR, then Stone Dragon, they unleash spells by the bucket load, Diamond Mind.The feats selected were to enable her to rechoose Manuevers. The fact that refreshing your Manuevers makes you either attack once only (without use of Manuevers) or do nothing at all balances the Warblade out nicely.Her previous character was a Charge-based Fighter. Now that character was much more powerful than the Warblade. It dealt phenomenal amounts of damage consistently. What it lacked was the versatility of the Warblade.Out of the 3 classes in BoNS, the Crusader is the only one that is pretty silly in my group's opinions due to its randomness. Why choose a class that could randomly mess you up if the dice fall badly.The Fighter is still stronger in combat in our experience thus far, but can get caught out in the wrong situation whereas the Warblade can handle a lot more but at reduced strength.</blockquote>
