Let me tell you, any group that pulls through without having a fighter (meaning any martial and not just specifically a Fighter) deserves my undying respect...
Some of the encounters in Part 1 of The Show Must Go On look very nasty on paper. Fortunately the group had some really lucky rolls against the pods and Nemmia. And to my surprise the druid is a nasty little class as is the barbarian. The barbarian deals some heavy damage within the context of the system. This I expected. What did I not expect was the druid to be so effective. Fortunately they survived to lvl 2 with each martial falling twice requiring healing and the caster support not going down at all.
