I realize that you weren't saying that. I was trying to get my "hope for large races" across and it came out a little snarky.At no point did I even hint that Large creatures shouldn't be heroes. I have no idea where you got that.
I think my goal is to simply try to make it work because I like to tinker with game rules.
I just finished reading the Skills and Feats chapters, which mean the Equipment chapter is next.Large creatures aren't typically appropriate for PCs, though, and it's mainly because of the weapon issue. If you change the dice, then there are a number of abilities that work different. A Craghammer is a d10, Brutal 2 weapon. If it moves up a size, is the Brutal 2 still appropriate? What about a weapon that changes from 1 big die to 2 smaller dice. The Brutal property suddenly become incredibly powerful. That's part of the reason that they don't want Large PCs.
I'm assuming that Brutal is a magical weapon property, correct?
Part of me thinks that a flat bonus for weapon damage for large races (as Fanaelialae suggested) is best, but I want it to scale up somehow (especially since weapon dice scale). Perhaps +1 for Heroic tier, +2 for Paragon tier, and +3 for Epic tier.
Opinions on that?
