Ya know Bull, I think that would be fun if people paid attention to that
fact. I almost have that for the games that I'm running now. The three
really heavy combat types (the merc, the physad and the combat mage) all hit
somewhere between the upper 20's to the upper 30's. The slightly combat
types (the enchanter and the healer) usually hit somewhere in the lower to
upper 20's. It was stunning watching them all come within an action set of
each other. And yes, the game here is a bit powerful.

Yeah, but that luck needs to be cultivated. Damn I wish I had the money for
Gen Con now...I'd love to play with some of the people on this list.
