Here's the deal. I'm working on some revisions for my campaign I'm building. My previous laptop bit the big one and I had to start from scratch. However, starting all over has given me a couple of ideas about homebrewed stuff.
This question is specific to Gladiators. Now, I checked out the Giantitp E6 Gladiator and the Pathfinder 3rd party Gladiator by Four Winds. Those.. sort of had the feel of what I wanted, but not quite.
So, I have come to ask for some feedback on ideas for a homebrewed Gladiator base class. Any other ideas would also be appreciated.

Full BAB
Good Reflex and Fortitude saves
Simple and Martial weapons, plus one free Exotic
Light armor (maybe medium*) and light/heavy shields
Skirmish as a Scout
Weapon feat trees similar to a PF Ranger (Maybe make a couple homebrew feats to give Sword and Board some love, TWF, no ranged feats, some other ideas..?)
Bravery as a PF Fighter
Weapon Training as a PF Fighter
*Armor Training as PF Fighter (If I allow Medium Armor)
Choice of certain Critical feats (Improved Crit,extra effect Crit feats)
Oh yeah, and Leap attack/Pounce. Definitely needs Pounce (Because Melee DOES need nice things)
Definitely needs a way to use Perform. I was thinking of something like..
Every time the Gladiator drops an enemy or confirms a crit, they make a immediate Perform(Act) check to do it in a gory display, giving a bonus small bonus to allies that scales with level, along with a penalty to enemies.
Well, that's just a very, very basic idea of what I'm shooting for. Any idea's or contributions to the effort would be awesome. If I can get enough support for this, I'll definitely post this bad boy into homebrew for everyone to enjoy.
