Other than the Hero Wars rules? <grin>
I've had one death, one or two near deaths. Several followers dead. The problem is, what do you do then? Introducing a new character at starting levels will make him totally out-classed in scenarios that challenge the others. So I feel you have to let the new character have some bump ups.
And anyway, many of the high abilities (and games) are not combat based.
Cheers,
Graham
