Help with Gestalt game- Which to pick, Maneuvers, or Apostle of Peace.

[The Vagabond]

I'm making a character for a gestalt game- Permitting duel progression classes- I'm making a Monk//Cleric with Vow of Peace, focused on being an unkillable buffing machine. However, I'm split between two options at level 8- I can either go Apostle of Peace into Sacred Fist, or I can go with Unarmed Swordsage into Shadow Sun Ninja. What do the folks at the playground recommend?

I would get both Vow of Peace and Vow of Nonviolence, go Beguiler 5/ PrC 1/ Beguiler 14// Unarmed Swordsage 7/ Apostle of Peace 2/ Seeker of the Misty Isle 1/ Contemplative 10. You'll be able to solve nearly any noncombat situation your party encounters, and you'll still be extremely decent in combat. Get someone in the party who has the authority to judge, sentence, and execute any prisoners on the spot like Judge Dredd, to be able to kill enemies without any drawbacks from your vows.
