Not so fast.  Unless you 're looking for primus gods already:

11-9-8-15-13-13-15   This would make a decent slasher.  Not great, but decent.
Granted, if he doesn't learn well, it will take hime 30-40 fight to get to AD,
but he'll have decent starting skills.

This guy I would DA.  If you want to run a dixie basher, sink 5 in WL, 3 in DF
and 6 in SP. Run 10-10-10-D.  The average SZ doen't guarentee decent damage,
even with a 21 ST.  DA if he does less than Great.

WS _do not_ need the extra point of SP.  Also, 15 WL is a little low. Make ST
12 and try WS, TP or maybe BA (run slow, in APA/F, DA if he doesn't do at least
Great Damage).  For TP, put the extra point in CN.

Uhhhhh, Lunger? (joke) This is a classic LU roll-up.  Oh.  Forget the SP.  Put
those 4 points in WL!!!!  21's are great!  If you don't want to make a LU this
slow, this would make a _GREAT_ WS.  Much better than the last one.  You should
train ST to 11 at some point, though.  At nine you can use the SC (great
weapon), and sort of use BS and QS (other good WS weapons, req. 11 ST,
technically).  Remember: SP is one of the more useless stats.  You could also
make this a PL, though DF is a little low.  WS win alot more often than PL's,
if run properly.

Ug. Kill it.  If you were morally opposed to DAing warriors, you could trry
8-12-16-15-8-10-15 Striker, might be entertaining...
