Then you get 20 levels of HP progression.20 levels of advancement with fixed HP? You are looking at a serious rules hack because so much of D&D's system math for monsters and spells is scaled for the constant HP progression. Even the d20 OSR guys don't really break from this paradigm.How many are willing to redesign/rescale 3/4ths of the spells and monsters to keep the feel of a single tier?Not many as the 5e compatible Adventures in Middle Earth game shows. D&D with (insert setting here)-Veneer rules the day.I would say that the point isn't to do what the BRP/CoC game does.  It is: "That looks like a cool setting to play in. Lets do it with D&D!."</blockquote>
