Siggy: agreed. Lame.
CKafrica: nothing wrong with that, really...
but I've got some variety in mind here:
CL = class level
MP = Maneuver point pool
MK = Maneuvers known
ST = stances known
PR = point recovery

Warblade uses the basic mechanics detailed up to this point.
The Crusader and Swordsage will have different mechanics.....

Crusaders start combat with 0 points in their pool. They gain a number of points at the beginning of their turn as indicated by their level. If these points are not used, they will continue to accumulate until the maximum number in their pool is reached.
For example, a 1st level crusader accumulates one point at the beginning of each round. If none of these points are used, on the third round, the crusader will have 3 points in his pool. The next round, no points are gained, because the crusader has reached the maximum number of points allowed for his level.
Outside of combat, a Crusader may access his maneuvers by meditating for 5 minutes. At the end of the meditation, the crusader may select ONE maneuver that he knows. That maneuver must be used within one minute (10 rounds) or be lost. Points in combat do not accumulate until this maneuver is either used, or abandoned. The following round, points will begin to accumulate as normal.
For example, a 5th level crusader has White Raven Tactics available as a 3rd level maneuver.
His team plans to ambush a group of orcs, so the crusader begins to meditate. After 5 minutes, he selects White Raven Tactics, and will be available to use for the next 10 rounds. His team moves into position, and on the 3rd round of readying, his team attacks. On his action, he uses White Raven Tactics to gain the advantage over the orcs! Since the Crusader has used WRT, on round 4, he receives 4 points to use as normal... he can choose to use some of these points on either 2nd or 1st level maneuvers, or he may wait until next round, when he would acquire 4 more points. The maximum in his pool is 7... so he will only gain 3 more.

Swordsage has NO standard recovery mechanic: he gains adaptive syle as a free feat to use, and recovers his full point pool with a full round action.
I continue to have issues with tables. :rolleyes
