I want to keep it as close to the 2E as possible, so some classes are not available to some races, no one is able to ressurect you when you die and Athas is deadly and unforgiving. I will allow the players to have a Ability Score cap of 21, Half Giants of 23 in Strength and think about letting the players start at level 2, what do you think, will they have a chance? I didn't play for some years now and have no clue how tough a CR 1 Monster is compared to a CR 3, I have no experience.   Thanks for any advice and insights.   Regards   Lukasz

Make sure that fights have solutions besides killing everything. thats one thing that I think a ultra dangerous world benefits from massively. Smart retreating and sneaking should get rewarded handsomely as well,
