[QUOTE="Aus_Snow, post: 4520551, member: 29112"] If it's easily accessible, and allowable according to the DM, the Book of Iron Might goes a long way to fixing what some see as being a problem in this area (i.e., a general lack of variety or even 'flair' perhaps, for pre-Bo9S warrior-types.) Without really adding or changing a whole lot, system-wise, it nonetheless provides a manoeuvre/stunt framework that can spice up combat - for characters of any class, in fact, as I seem to recall the book's creators promising. It was a Malhavoc Press product from oh, a few years back now, penned by none other than a certain Mr. Mearls. . . :) A rare combat-focused 'splatbook', actually, in that it doesn't contain any classes - [I]not even prestige classes![/I] - or very many feats, either. The race, you could certainly take or leave (the Ironborn), but that only takes up one section, anyhow. Mind you, I should also say that yeah, just as with the Bo9S, it's a system-wide change you'd be looking at here. No new classes, sure, but still. . . a thing to consider. [/QUOTE]
