Well seeing the battle sorcerer made me think why isnt there a battle variant for the wizzard that I know of. so i did the same changes that were made for the battle sorcerer and it worked out fine, what do you all think?

Other than taking feats that allow you to wear armour as a normal wiz I don't think there's any variant that makes you into a battle caster.

Thought it was pretty much covered with the warwage class TBH.

What did you change? it might be good, and it might be awful.

When you say 'did the same changes', what do you mean? How did you lessen the spells known by the wizard? I mean, did you lessen the spells that the wizard is allowed to learn (ie. spell schools) or did you decrease the amount that wizards start with, which is only really limiting you temporarily, because you can just learn them somewhere else? Oh, and you can use the variant in Unearthed Arcana to select fighter bonus feats in place of your wizard bonus feats, if you want.

The battle sor limitation do not work well with the wiz. Infintly spells know -1 is not a big loss but for a soc that know like 4 or 5 per spell level to lose 1 per spell level is a huge lose.

And losing 1 casting per spell level is not to bad as you can specilze and get it right back.

P.S. In my games I droped the soc for battle soc as the standered class. As I do think the battle soc is better and makes the class feel diffrent. I also let them take the feat from complete arcan to ignore the heaver armor even though they do not meet the requirements. (Alowing them to where light armor.)
