The ashworm dragoon from Sandstorm is an awesome class. Finally, a mount that makes not walking worth it. The only thing that makes the class better is cavalier levels, but you DEFINITELY want the 10th-level ability of the class. Furthermore, the flavor works REALLY well with the new Asherati race from the same book, though I still decided to use (mummified) humans for the folowing build (I wanted undead for plot reasons)

Evil overlord's subterrainean ambush guardians:
Race: Human Mummy
Alignment: Lawful Evil or Lawful Neutral
Samurai 5/Ashworm Dragoon 10/Cavalier 5

Feats:

Level 1 Samurai 1 Power Attack, Mounted Combat
Level 2 Samurai 2 [Two Swords as One]
Level 3 Samurai 3 Ride-By Attack
Level 4 Samurai 4
Level 5 Samurai 5 [Iaijutsu Master]
Level 6 Ashworm Dragoon 1 Cleave
Level 7 Ashworm Dragoon 2 Point Blank Shot
Level 8 Ashworm Dragoon 3
Level 9 Ashworm Dragoon 4 Weapon Focus: Lance
Level 10 Ashworm Dragoon 5 Trample
Level 11 Ashworm Dragoon 6
Level 12 Ashworm Dragoon 7
Level 13 Ashworm Dragoon 8 Spirited Worm
Level 14 Ashworm Dragoon 9 Spirited Charge
Level 15 Ashworm Dragoon 10 Mounted Archery
Level 16 Cavalier 1
Level 17 Cavalier 2
Level 18 Cavalier 3 Precise Shot
Level 19 Cavalier 4
Level 20 Cavalier 5

I realize this is probably somewhat suboptimal. Anybody else want to take a crack at it? TRUST me, though, I want all 10 levels of ashworm dragoon in there, continuously if at all possible.

The other thought I had was: (For a good ashworm dragoon) Paladin 5/Ashworm Dragoon 10/Wild Plains Outrider 3/paladin 2
