We have had about 6 sessions (Bruce? Roger?) and started in November. I think that there is always a bit of a lag between a game coming out, and people playing it on a regular basis, instead of one of 'trial sessions'. As for ability levels - well most of us are still learning (though bruce has quite a fund of expereince of HW), so a few things get missed (or ignored for simplicity) at the moment - handing out hero points every time (I think, unless Roger is deliberately being tough on us) In addition those 6 sessions only represent something like a week of elapsed Gloranthan time. We have not yet reached a point where would be improving skills between adventures. I imagine our rate of improvement will increase as we get more practice with the system.
