Hi!

I am looking to play skillful front line fighter.

Restrictions: No 3rd party or Web content, No flaws, LA buyoff or ACFs
Lastly, I don't know if Silverbrow human will be an option either so I am not going to count on it.

Goals (in order): Survivable, buff team, deal damage

After going through the handbooks I have the following:
Bard4/Warblade16 (Bard2/Warblade1/Bard2/Warblade15)
1 Dragon Touched, Dragonfire Inspiration
3 Lingering Song
6 Leadership (getting a rapid shot archer or TWFer)(Warblade5 Combat reflexes)
9 Song of White raven (Warblade9 Iron Heart Aura)
12 Power Attack (Warblade13 Blindfight)
15 Stormguard Warrior
18 Robilar's Gambit

The game will start at 1st and go into epic.
Primary weapon will be a reach weapon with Armor spikes.

Max'g out Skills; Diplomacy, Tumble, Jump, Concentration and UMD where possible.

My questions
1 - Any improvements?
2 - Is switching Linger song out for exotic weapon prof better? Or Leap Attack later?
3 - Maneuvers! Suggestions are welcome. I figure lots of Iron Heart and Diamond Mind with some Tiger claw to get movement and damage.

It seems like there should be a good Excel planner for picking maneuvers but I haven't found one.

Thanks!
