Start to done in under a year of weekly sessions seems terribly fast to me.On the other hand, with some old school style increasing time to level as you break the double digits then I rather like the implications of this style of stripped down first two levels. Both for the true zero to hero campaign feel and to inhibit the minimal class dip that I found very troubling with 3.x multiclassing (assuming they are going to use 3.x style multiclassing).I read on one of the OSR blogs (The Mule Abides, IIRC) that Gary's house rules included starting new characters in the existing campaign at level 3, so it certainly has a long and rich pedigree.</blockquote>
