Re: [DF] Solving for N
When we started to play D&D for first level characters N Goblins would be a fair encounter, N Orcs tense, and N Gnolls a TPK. By the time we stopped 2N Bugbears, N Ogres, or N/2 Hill Giants were challenging but fair. Player skill is everything.
And D&D is much easier to balance than GURPS. There are no roleplay reasons not to optimise your characters for combat. The largest variable is equipment.
