This game is really well balanced, and automatically so.  The way in which you take boasts to balance out the character offering is genius.  It is a form of drafting where nothing is ever out of the question.  We played 2 rounds.  I lasted the longest on the first, but wasn’t able to kill much of anything.  The priest is kind of like that if he doesn’t have a great weapon.  The second round I was the prospector with a sling.  Normally that wouldn’t be good, but since we had some really big monsters and a lot of tiny ones, I was able to use the sling and survive a while.  I also got really lucky with a few of the rolls to make me absolutely destroy the others.  I ended that round with 28 gold.  This is a really amazing game that only takes about 30 minutes to run through and is pleasantly synchronous.
