Make people starting at level 20

Ok guys, it's time to take the grind out of the game: let's make people choose if they want to start as peasants or level 20 peasants. Why that? Because facing same skilled guys with 20 levels of difference is absolutly not fun, especially when the only useful thing that most peasants can do is just punching other guys with spears hoping they won't notice that the low wpf make them able to outspam you with every kind of weapon.

I know that some people like fighting against all odds, but mostly don't and I feel that the grind from 1 to around 20 is quite a job that you need to do in order to enjoy the mod, so since 0.200 is against mindless grind I suggest to fully make it with much rejoyce.

Any reasons why this could be bad (apart my failure in english)?

Why don't you just go play native if you don't want to grind?

Because I love strategus and I like the way you can customize your character in crpg. Also I didn't say it will remove the grind, you still have to reach the cap, but just removing the boring part of the grind, when you are quite useless for your team and just spend your time waiting for being useful

I'd rather not, I like getting the early levels and distributing my points.
If you retire a few times you can get to 20 in just a few hours if you are lucky.

You will still able to distributing your point, you just start with the point of a level 20

Also there's something wrong in the latter sentence... To retire "a few times" you need to grind way past level 20 and more than once...

Don't know when but if I remember correctly there should be a peasant server (1-20 most probably) someday in the future.

I've played about 1 hour and I'm level 12
So you know, really pointless
This is just a step towards native, where all units have nearly the same stats. Don't listen chadz D:

So why we have to waste that 2 hours being completly useless to the team spending the time hiding between allies and stealing some kills from time to time? Why everyone seems to enjoy that?

How about a char that gets immediately pushed to level 25, but does not gain any xp/cannot advance?

Would allow cRPG haters to play Strategus.

If they cannot advance, why would they play Strategus or crpg in the first place ? They could just play native.

You say grind... but it's not like you are doing anything different to a "normal" player.

We all charge in, sometimes we manage a few kills, other times we struggle to get one during the entire map (well I do at least!)

You don't have to hide down alleyways or in haystacks hoping to grab a kill... you can still do alot.

At level 27, I still rarely come out with a positive K:D (perhaps I'm just really bad) but I have a lot of fun, and some of my best moments have been as bait whilst a team-mate guts 'em from behind.

I don't think it should start from anything but 1.
