Cavaliers are in my opinion, the best Paladin Class Kit available. Come on, the only real drawback is no ranged weapons. They are very strong against undead and dragons, and use your Lay Hands ability when you sorely need it, cuz once you get to level 14, your healing 28hp instantly, in ToB, you can heal so much HP. Use your turn undead ability, its a lifesaver. Well equip your paladin with good plate mail. You can use magical armor, and try to get Armor of the Heart, its the best plate mail in SoA. Memorize some healing spells, and some wonder spells (chant, armor of faith, etc) and use your protection from evil abilities. Your Cavalier should be able to last long against mages due to your awesome saving throws, you'll have a natural 20% resistance to fire and acid, and with a insane THACO, you can survive the battlefield, if your Constitioun is in the high 16-18 area. Goodluck!
