5 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Basic Rules I am amazed that they are giving away so much material. They really do want to get people to game again.

5 out of 5 rating for 13th Age Core Book Got me back into RPGs

On purpose, no. But I had a game where bad decisions and good role play led to a TPK and a powerful artifact falling into the bad guys hands. The next campaign was dealing with the results of that TPK. The players had a blast.

With Constitution adding to HP, even in a slightly more limited manner, and adding to natural healing - adding con modifier to each HD spent for healing, I do not see constitution being a weak stat. If it does end up being weaker than expected then I may look at allowing the con modifier to add...
