I couldn't find a thread with the info or anyone talking about it. I thought a few people may have missed it so I am going to post it here! http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/z1af7/we_are_overhaul_games_the_team_behind_baldurs/c60o5d8
Well, a quick run down of the Blackguard is as follows:
Must be evil.
Immune to level drain and fear.
Can specialize in any weapon (2 slots)
Can use any armor, wear any armor
Absorb Health (Level 1) ability to heal self quickly: Absorbs 2hp from enemy per level of Blackguard. Save vs Magic.
Can Turn Undead (Rebuke) as Paladin of same level.
Can use poison weapon 1x every 5 levels.
Can use Aura of Despair. Once per day ability that varies with level: 2nd: Gives enemies -1 to hit, -1 to damage, +2 AC 6th: Gives enemies -2 to hit, -2 to damage, +2 to AC 15th: Gives enemies -4 to hit, -4 to damage, +4 to AC, causes Fear in enemies level 8 or below. 20th: Gives enemies -4 to hit, -4 to damage, +4 to AC, causes Fear in enemies level 18 or below.
Very good class if you're battling undead creatures or spellcasters (the poison weapon ability is particularly effective against them). The fighter is able to specialize up to grand mastery (5 slots) so is probably a better melee class overall.
