I remember somebody saying something about a spell/item that gave full or 3/4 BAB, offsetting the penalty of Warhulk. Can somebody point me to it?

Get yourself your Skillfull weapons, at only a +2 bonus! Still requires that +1, but is otherwise excellent.
Introduced in Complete Arcane, if I'm not mistaken, originally for those uppity wizards that want to enter melee.

Magic of Incarnum is also very good for boosting Warhulks. Who cares if your BAB is low if you've had the ability to make four attacks per round since level 2? ;)

Okay, another question about warhulks.

Since it requires Large size, +5 BAB and Cleave...
Could I, with a minotaur (LA+2 with 6HD= 6 BAB) get into a warhulk as a CR3 Character?

PC's are not measure by challenge rating. They are measured in Effective Character Level (ECL) which is racial hit dice + level adjustment + class levels. A straight minotaur with no class levels is an ECL 8 character.

Wiat, I thought that a minotaur had a level adjustment of +2?

Wait, so how does HD and LA work? I'm rather confused. I thought you get all the stuff that says "Minotaurs as characters" at the LA
