Re: (TFT) Man To Man & GURPS - was Re: (TFT) The return of Ogre - Rick did something silly.



I found in Death Test that the relative parity of the group v. the challenge made critical hits incredibly important, almost like "game-makers and life-takers". Ultimately if you're fighting challenging critters and people, someone should at some point just take you out, that's the luck of the dice.

In most of my old games we got around this by being really stingy with XP
and making the XP->DX/ST/IQ conversion more expensive so that things never
got too unbalanced.  A couple of early games in my group got absurd after a
while, and we started from scratch at one point because it just wasn't
challenging.
