So true. Heck the highest level I ever got in a BX game was 7. So yea 1-10 is the sweet spot for sure and I just love using only a d6 and d20 for everything. Something very elegant about it. Anyhow my son is the youngest and he's 8 and loves playing D&D which makes me very happy. And fudging the rol...

Thanks Doug. I appreciate that. I don't want to completely alter the power curve of the WB experience. I just want to buff it slightly. But your points on tactical considerations are spot on.
