Well.....The suggestion so far has been good....but.....
If your going to have the elven mage at the front......
he'll get the veritable sh*t beaten out of him or her.....

As far as I can work it out.....the first 2 or 3 in a party will
be the ones to get any direct confrontation......
and thus get dealt the first rounds damage......

Now...I could be wrong...but.....I think there is a little note in
the KJC Quest handbook (the UK originators) about the fact that
the first few in the party head up your first rank for combat.....

I think its in the bit about moving numbers.....after the initial set-up!
