I'm planning to start up my first D20 modern campaign soon.
My general plan is a fairly vanilla flavor, similiar to what I have seen discussed several times before: an x-files-y, dash of call of chthulu, modern-day "real" world game where the characters can evolve into larger than life heroes.
My first assumption was to start the characters at level 1. But as I work along, L1 characters seem to be really weak. So I am thinking that perhaps I should start at more like 3rd or 5th.
What has been the experience of people who have already been playing? Does L1/L2 work ok?
For reference, I've pretty much always started D&D at L1, and I've never had any problem with it. So it isn't really a low power thing. It is just that the lack of ability APPEARS to me to be more prominent in D20 modern.
Any recommendations?
Thanks
