I was thinking about ways to bump up fighters since that seems to be what most people want. One idea that I came up with was a class feature called "Battle Cry." Here is the description.
Battle Cry: As a standard action the fighter can let out a rallying cry that grants a +2 inspiration bonus on attack and damage rolls for a number of turns equal to her class level+ Cha modifier.
I haven't decided when the fighter should get this feature, although I'm leaning toward either 1st or 3rd level. Please let me know what you thing of this idea.
Mechanically, it cuts into the bard's territory a bit, but I have no issue with that. Overall, I think it's a sound concept.
Flavor-wise, the name and description seem more barbarian-like, somehow. I'd maybe make it do the exact same thing, but I'd call it "Tactical Awareness (Ex)" or something, and have it represent the fighter telling the other combatants where they're needed and how to best coordinate their attacks -- like Lee at Gettysburg or something.
Since this would be more of a tactical mastery thing, I'd maybe have them gain it at a slightly higher level.

I had actually tried to avoid cutting into the bard's territory by making it usable only by the fighter. I like the name "Tactical Awareness" but to make it a better fit for individual use I would call it "Battlefield Awareness."
