|reason=A 5 level base class is just a bad idea. This should be a prestige. Having an attack which can bypass AC, and continues to hit opponents until you fail your attack roll is overpowered especially for a moderate balance.|block=InsufficientExplanationThe into the fray feature has no cap. Thus a knight could do 1 point of damage to every creature adjacent dropped foe (within reach), and receive a significant bonus. This is especially problematic at low level, where +5 bonus to AC could make them invulnerable 95% of the time. The champion strike kills without a save. Lastly, the fact that most features do not apply to monsters at or above the characters level. Being able to kill a lot of minions is pedestrian, and useless when fighting one boss.}}
Kesey, I didn't create this class, I just adopted it so it can continue existing on this site. I personally am all for it being a base class, as the things it adds really aren't that huge. It could indeed be just an addition to the Fighter class, really; but it doesn't bring enough to the table to warrant being a PrC, and I'm not going to change it from the original for any reason than clarifying wording.
