I'm thinking of Fighter->Sword Bard myself.
As for lore reasons I will be using a Longsword two-handed, I will pick Great Weapon Fighting and stick to it, AC be damned
.
My only dilemna is whether to switch at F1 or F2. I will miss out on Action Suge, but will gain a 2nd attack not at 8th but 7th Char lvl.
Class levels counting for ASAI were supported in the video by the chubby bearded guy on YT.
