[QUOTE="hawkeyefan, post: 9310557, member: 6785785"] I honestly think the best solution to this is to encourage troupe play. Have players create multiple gang members. Have them only pick one to go on any given Score. This also encourages retirement and the Prison Claims game because characters can take the fall for Wanted levels and the player doesn’t miss out. Importantly, it also spreads the XP and advancements over more PCs, but keeps the pace of the Crew the same. So this way, by the time the Crew is Tier IV or V, it’s a large crew and it feels accurate, but none of the individual characters is as powerful as with a smaller crew. I did a little of this, and I think the next game of Blades I run, I’m going to encourage it a lot more. I’ve not yet played a|state but I picked up a copy and read it.
