Hello all! This is my first post here, I've been lurking here for maybe a week or two and because of some of the things I read here I decided to buy BRP. I've read it over, more of a quick skim through, and have started throwing together a few professions for a fantasy game I'm hoping to run in the near future. The game I want to run will probably be heavy on combat. Have any of you seen rules to make characters more durable? I don't want characters to be as invincible as high level D&D characters, but would like them to be able to take a few wounds without dying. Should I raise starting HP? Increase armor values? Decrease weapon damage values? Increase the starting level of Parry and Dodge skills? Any suggestions are welcome!
