[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 8101951, member: 83242"] I think there is some value in that. I have thought about doing something similar in future campaigns, but to be honest I don't have any difficult in taking out my PCs whether is one combat or 4 combats in a day. My plan was for hit points to be normal up to 10th level, then after 10th level you only get a fixed number of HP based on your hit dice die (no Con bonus). So after 10th you get. d6 = 1 HP per level d8 = 2 HP per level d10 = 3 HP per level d12 = 4 HP per level However, we found a method that works better for us and produces a similar effect I think. We have to pools of hit points: [LIST=1] [*]Hit Points: determined normally and recovered normally [*]Bloodied Hit Points: mostly fixed & based on size: [STR mod+Con mod] x Size (Medium = 1) [/LIST] When your HP are 0 or when you are hit by a Crit you then take damage of your BHP. When your BHP = 0 your dead. Makes crits much more exciting and gives a nice boost to the Champion fighter. We also have armor rules that play into this too. [/QUOTE]
