So, my group is planning it's last foray in 3.5, and for the first time we're being allowed the gestalt option. I've never given it much thought actually, but now I feel overwhelmed with possible combos. I'm looking at a character along the lines of warblade/knight or knight/paladin/crusader using the 2d8 mercurial greatsword from Sword and Fist (3.0) and just being the baddest melee character in town. I have never made a character like this however and could use some pointers.
34 point buy/2 traits/2 flaws allowed/WotC material allowed, any 3.5, 3.0 with dm approval, dragon mag with dm approval, all campaign settings ok.
Looking for some guidance along the lines of shock trooper, combat brute, jotunbrud, power attack, ect.
What would you make your melee monster with? Warblade/?
