[PF/DSP] Dreamscarred Press announces ToB-inspired product II: The Rematch

[IronFist]

Alright, so... a thought for you all:

Fighters need a little love and a martial template. So we know they've got two sides to their class in Pathfinder: Bonus Feats, and Weapon/Armor Training. Veritably every archetype under the sun trades away the weapon/armor training stuff, and bravery. Rarely does it effect the bonus feats. I also think we can all agree that fighter archetypes makes fighter actually more fun to play than normal, because it lends new abilities to make your schtick work (firm believe that all fighters must have a schtick, something that they focus on doing). So what if my archetype for fighter, instead of attacking the same old features, instead, went after some bonus feats? Pay out 6 of your bonus feats, and maybe heavy armor and tower shields to basically get Martial Training 1-6 twice.

This gives your fighter maneuvers up to 6th level, some bonus feats, and the track of fighter's abilities that you could in theory trade for one of those flavorful archetypes.

Too strong? Too awesome? You decide.

While that is a good idea, it's also something than can be done without an archetype at all. Just make Martial Training a combat feat (as it should be) and every Fighter can do that.
I'd much rather see the Fighter as a one-discipline initiator.

Ironfist: I was saying I disagree with it not being Path of War related, since I got the vibe that a decent chunk of the design goal of Path of War as to give Melee/Mundanes Nice Things.

As far as I know, Path of War is about combat and martial arts, not "giving melee nive things". I don't think it's related at all.
