... because YES, I AM crazy enough to give myself even MORE of a headache while running this thing. :P
So after at least three failed Play-by-Post internet campaigns and one failed Neverwinter Nights adaptation, I started a PnP Gestalt STAP about a month ago, connecting my now-scattered player group through the wonder that is Ventrilo. We're now about halfway through There Is No Honor - the Iron Cobra encounter took place last week, most of the group save the one who missed the last session just reached level 2. We're using a mishmash of 3.5 and Pathfinder, scaling along Pathfinder's Medium XP progression.
The party includes:
Gin and Jenny Woodstock: LG Dvati Monk (PF) 1|Fighter (PF) 1 (Dvati is ECL +1)
Rokugo Yuri: TN River Spiritfolk Binder 2|Rogue 1/Psion (Telepath) 1 (Scorpion Clan, going for Shadowmind on Rogue side)
Cordor Chainror: CG Human Scout 1|Warblade 1
Rin Gold: TN Human Ardent 2|Psion (Nomad) 2
Mala Shrenan: LN Whisper Gnome Lurk 2|Wilder 2
Jhered Nightwind: NG Star Elf Duskblade 2|Bladewind 2 (Bladewind is a custom class our gaming group put together for a now-defunct Play-by-post forum, based on Joachim Armster's fighting style; going for Anointed Blade on Duskblade side)
I may put up a journal thread eventually if I feel like getting around to it, as the one I write up for the players is on a password-blockaded forum.
The main purpose of this thread is to tinker out some of the later encounters and to take some suggestions on interesting Gestalt combinations for major NPCs or antagonists. Most of the early classes already have theirs - Lavinia for example is going to be Swashbuckler|Courtier now, reflecting her focus on Diplomacy and such; and Javelle is a nasty combination of Swashbuckler/Rogue|Scout, making her a really vicious high-mobility combatant.
So I'm mainly interested in unique or interesting concepts people have that I might not have thought of, suggestions of how to do certain things better, that sort of thing. And of course commentary from anyone else was crazy enough to try this before me. ;)
And yes, for the curious, I still plan on throwing the Broken Souls villains at the party yet again. *evil grin* Gestalt Nurn is eeeeeeevillll...
I am currently running Shackled City with gestalt characters and it has caused only limited problems for me. It really doesn't blow the power curve that much. The party has access to more abilities and their hit pints may be higher than the average party it really doesn't make that much of a difference.
The only headache that came to me was when the party, approaching high level, went from 4 players to 5. It blew the power curve and I was forced to not advance them a level and then maximize the hit points of my enemies to give them a challenge. Be aware of the fact that they will likely have access to the abilities to confront a situation and that if you have enough players the sheer amount of damage a party can dish out at high levels can get pretty gruesome.
I've enjoyed having a party of gestalt, otherwise.
I forgot about this thread here, heh. Good to know I'm not the only one who's had this idea, my group is loving Gestalt so much that it may take some work to convince them to go back to normal gaming :P Assuming I do at all, I'm enjoying DMing it just as much.
We're almost done with There Is No Honor (see my journal thread here), and I've actually found I quite enjoyed Gestalt-ifying the various NPCs. Vark and all the Lotus Dragon goons became Fighter|Rogues and were quite useful and effective when they didn't roll horribly, a nicely-placed ambush this past weekend killed off Yuri and Rin. Added Swashbuckler alongside Scout for the Ixitxs in the LD lair and they tore the party up pretty good as well.
Rowyn and GT were fun to redo as well, Rowyn kept her original build (advanced a tad) on one side and went straight Swordsage on the other, GT became a Scout|Dragonshaman instead of just a Rogue. The party hasn't faced them yet though.
My main worry is that I'm going to get to points later and not know what to do with characters, hence this thread asking for suggestions. Vanthus for example, I still don't know what I'm going to do with him, though I want something to cover his abysmal saves for one thing.
As promised, here are the NPCs for Gestalt-ified There Is No Honor, for your use if you so wish. Do enjoy, and constructive criticism is welcomed.

Skirmish (Ex) A scout relies on movement and mobility in combat, both offensively and defensively. The scout gains a +1 dodge bonus to AC. The skirmish bonus increases by +1 every four levels beyond 1st, to a maximum of +5 at 17th level.
As a free action during movement, the scout can convert his skirmish dodge bonus to extra damage dice in any round in which he moves at least 10 feet. The scout loses his skirmish dogde bonus to AC until the beginning of his next turn, but he gains a number of extra d6s equal to his skirmish bonus on his very next attack after moving at least 10 feet. Should the scout score a critical hit with a skirmish attack, this extra damage is not multiplied. Ranged attacks can only gain benefit from skirmish if the target is within 30 feet.
With a weapon that deals nonlethal damage (like a sap, whip, or an unarmed strike), a scout can make a skirmish attack that deals nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage. He cannot use a weapon that deals lethal damage to deal nonlethal damage in a skirmish attack, not even with the usual –4 penalty.
The scout must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. A scout gains no extra damage from skirmish while striking a creature with concealment. The extra damage from skirmish is precision damage.
The scout loses the skirmish ability (both the defensive and offensive option) when wearing medium or heavy armor, or carrying a medium or heavy load.

Glad to see I'm not the only one running a gestalt savage tide campaign, although I only have 3 Players. I'm curious, what sort of "steps," if you will, did you use to "gestaltify" the npc's? Also, is it okay if I use the Blue Nixie Thugs and Soller Vark for my campaign? I think I'll gestaltify most of the others on my own, but those look like they'll fit in fine in my campaign.
Feel free to use them as you wish, that's why they're here :)
Mainly I tried to stick to character concept. If the character was already multiclass (like Kersh Reftun or Rowyn) I either divided the multiclass across both sides of the Gestalt or picked something suiting for the other side. (Rowyn is being changed for her reappearance later, swapping Swordsage for Warblade.)
For single-classed characters like Veldimar or Gut Tugger or the Ixitxs, I just picked something appropriate. Veld was a cleric of Olidammarra, Rogue just made sense. Gut Tugger's already a dragon and green, why not Dragon Shaman? The Ixitxs are aquatic and dextrous, swash works well for them. And so on and so on.
Normally, I leave these for at the end of each chapter, but I had way, way too much fun designing and running this to leave it past tonight. If anyone is running TBWG, feel free to toss this surprise in - not even required to be a Gestalt game. Enjoy!
SWARM, SAVAGE PARROTS CR4
A screeching caw fills the air as masses of brightly-colored parrots burst forth from the trees. On second glance, however, something is dreadfully wrong with these birds... ALL of them. Each and every one is twisted, malformed, and horribly abberant in one way or another. Vicious, oversized fangs jut forth from the beaks of some. Others have far too many wings. Some are missing patches of feathers and the flesh beneath is impaled with crackling hooked bone digits writhing about. Yet others have no legs or talons, but rather a wriggling mass of suckered and lamprey-mawed tentacles. They charge furiously all at once, screeching in a manner not at all natural as the entire mass of them stares down at their newfound prey with ravenous eyes.

AC Bonus (Ex) Harliss gains a +1 bonus to Armor Class as long as she is wearing no armor or light armor and not carrying a shield. This bonus to AC applies even against touch attacks or when she is flat-footed. She loses this bonus when she is immobilized or helpless, when she wears any armor heavier than light, when she carries a shield, or when she carries a medium or heavy load.
Camouflage (Ex) Harliss can use the Stealth skill to hide in any of her favored terrains, even if the terrain doesn't grant cover or concealment.
Corsair's Feint (Ex) Harliss may make a feint as a free action once every 1d4 rounds.
Dance of Death (Ex) While performing a Dervish Dance Harliss gains the benefit of the Cleave feat even though she does not meet the prerequisites for the feat.
Dervish Dance (Ex) Harliss can become a whirling dancer of death twice per day. While doing so, she can make full attack action (melee attacks only) and still move up to her speed. However, she must move a minimum of 5 feet between each attack and the next when using this ability, and she cannot return to a square she has just exited, though she may return to that square later during her full attack. Harliss is subject to attacks of opportunity while dancing but may tumble normally as part of her move. If prevented from completing her move, Harliss is also prevented from finishing her full attack. If she wields a slashing weapon while in a dervish dance, she gains a +1 bonus on her attack and damage rolls. She can perform a dervish dance only once per encounter, and her dance lasts 4 rounds. At the end of the dance, she is fatigued for the duration of the encounter. While dancing, Harliss cannot use any skills or abilities that involve concentration or require her to remain still, such as Move Silently, Hide, or Search. She can use the Combat Expertise feat while dancing.
Grace (Ex) Harliss gains a +1 competence bonus on Reflex saves as long as she does not wear medium or heavy armor and is not carrying a medium or heavy load.
Favored Terrain (Ex) Harliss's favored terrains are Water (boats) and Underground (caves). She gains a +2 bonus on initiative checks and Knowledge (geography), Perception, Stealth, and Survival skill checks when she is in these terrains. She normally leaves no trail while traveling through these terrains and cannot be tracked (though she may leave a trail if she so chooses).
Insightful Strike (Ex) Harliss applies her Intelligence bonus to damage rolls with any light weapon, as well as any other weapon that can be used with Weapon Finesse. Targets immune to sneak attacks or critical hits are immune to this additional damage. Harliss loses this ability if she wears medium or heavy armor or carries a medium or heavy load. (Currently inactive due to Int drain.)
Movement Mastery (Ex) Harliss may take 10 on Acrobatics or Perform (dance) checks even when stress and distraction would normally prevent her from doing so.
Nimble Moves (Ex) Whenever Harliss moves, she may move through 5 feet of difficult terrain each round as if it were normal terrain. This feat allows her to take a 5-foot step into difficult terrain.
Quick Step (Ex) Harliss can give up one attack of her full attack action to move 5 feet.
Sailor's Step (Ex) When aboard a ship and wearing nothing more than light armor, Harliss gains a +2 dodge bonus to her Armor Class.
Scourge of the Seas (Ex) When Harliss uses Intimidate to demoralize foes, the attempt affects all enemies within 30 feet who can see and hear her, and the effect lasts for a number of rounds equal to her Charisma modifier. This is a mind affecting ability, and multiple uses of the ability don't stack.

Amphibious (Ex) Although bullywugs are aquatic, they can survive indefinitely out of water.
Dragonscale Husk (Ex) Bua Gorg gains a +8 bonus to AC and resist 5 to acid, cold, electricty, and fire from his protective scaly hide. He sacrifices his proficiency with all armors for this ability.
Fiendish Flamewreath (Su): Once per day Bua Gorg can immolate himself in wispy flames that do not harm him but deal 1d6 fire damage to any creature striking him with its body or a hand-held weapon. The wreath lasts 2 minutes or until Bua Gorg spends a free action to end them. This ability replaces his Fiendish Resilience warlock ability.
Icicle (Su): As a standard action, Bua Gorg can fire an icicle from his finger, targeting any foe within 30 feet as a ranged touch attack. The icicle deals 1d6 +4 points of cold damage.
Mantle of Ice (Su): A mantle of ice appears on Bua Gorg's shoulders for a number of rounds per day equal to his caster level. While the mantle of ice is in effect, any adjacent foe striking him with a melee weapon takes 1d6 + 4 points of cold damage.
Marsh Move (Ex) A bullywug suffers no movement penalties for moving in marshes or mud.
Mortal Bane (Su): Five times per day per spell-like ability, Bua Gorg may have a spell-like ability deal 2d6 extra damage to any creature that is not an Outsider, Undead, or Construct; creatures of those three categories take only 1d6 extra damage. Extra iterative strikes from eldritch glaive are considered to be part of a single use of eldritch blast.
Scythe of Evil (Su): Bua Gorg can cause one melee weapon he possesses to gain the evil weapon property for a number of rounds equal to your caster level. These rounds do not need to be consecutive. If the weapon leaves his possession, it loses this ability.
Summoning (Su) Bullywug clerics are notorious for their powerful but unpredictable summoning abilities.When a bullywug cleric casts a summon monster spell, there is a 50% chance that one more monster than the spell would ordinarily summon appears. In such cases, there is then a 25% chance that the summoned monsters are not under the bullywug's control, and attack random targets.
Touch of Evil (Su): Bua Gorg can cause a creature to become sickened as a melee touch attack. While sickened, the target is treated as good-aligned for the purposes of spells with the evil descriptor. This effect persists for 1 round against evil and neutral creatures. Against good creatures, this effect persists for 3 rounds. Once a creature has been affected by touch of evil, it is immune to its effects for 1 day.

Bit of Luck (Su): As a standard action, Liamae can touch a creature, giving it a bit of luck. For the next 3 rounds, any time the target rolls a d20, he can roll twice and take the better result. The target must decide to use this ability before rolling the dice. This effect fades after 3 rounds or when the reroll is used. Once a target has been affected by bit of luck, he can gain no further benefit from it for 1 day.
Fated (Su): Starting at 3rd level, you gain a +1 luck bonus on all of your saving throws during surprise rounds or if you are otherwise unaware of the attack. At 7th level and every four levels thereafter, this bonus increases by +1, to a maximum +5 at 19th level.
Touch of Destiny (Su): Liamae can touch a creature as a standard action to give it a bonus to a single attack roll, skill check, ability check, or saving throw equal to half her caster level (+1). This bonus lasts 3 rounds or until it is used. Once a creature has benefited from touch of destiny, it can gain no further benefit from this ability for 1 day.

Jester's Audacity (Ex) Zan gains a +1 dodge bonus to his AC.
Jester's Performance (Su): As bardic performance.
Fascinate (Su): As bard.
Inspiring Quip (Su): When enemies goof, the jester points it out, making it easier for his allies to succeed where their opponents fail. As an immediate action Zan can expend a round of jester's performance when an opponent misses an attack, granting all allies within 30 feet of the jester a +2 competence bonus on attacks against that foe for 1 minute. Activating this ability disrupts any peformance Zan is currently maintaining, unless he expends an action to maintain the performance on his next turn. Maintaining a performance interupted by inspiring quip does not require expenditure of rounds of jester's performance.
Counterbabble (Su): As bard ability countersong, except utilizing Perform (act, comedy, dance, or oratory).
Distraction (Su): As bard.
Taunt (Su): Zan can fling insults like a monkey flings poo. He can target one creature within 60 feet and make a Perform check (DC = 10 + ½ the target's Hit Dice + the target's Wisdom modifier). If successful, the target gains a +1 morale bonus to attack the jester, but takes a penalty to AC equal to Zan's Charisma modifier and is compelled toward injuring Zan. Zan can effect an additional target every four levels after 3rd, to a maximum of five targets at 19th level. On its next turn, a target is compelled toward injuring Zan in its own fashion (e.g. swordsmen will seek to engage him in melee, archers will attempt to shoot him, spellcasters will target or include him as a target of their spell, etc.). Combatants inclined to melee will charge if able, ranged attackers will move to mimimize range penalties, and spellcasters will seek to unleash their most damaging spells. The target is not compelled beyond reason: it may avoid hazardous terrain (lava pools, cliffs, etc.) and attacks of opportunity. If such an obstacle prevents the target from reaching/injuring Zan, the target recieves a Will save (DC = 10 + ½ Zan's level + Zan's Charisma modifier) to slough off the taunt. Taunt is a mind-affecting, language-dependent, and relies on audible components.
