Thanks Ancalagon. I loved the tone of you post and your thoughtfulness.
I think that warhammer would be a good comparison to what I am going for. The difference will be in the higher levels. In warhammer you are basically always poor, in my game their is the chance to become truly wealthy.
the sack of 300cp I plan on handing out for getting from 1st to 2nd level, should seem precious because it is a month's wages.
The PCs will need to spend 70cp to be able to spend time training and advance to 2nd level. Probably another 100cp for getting the rest of the starting equipment they couldnt afford at character creation.
