Dogs by the Numbers

[Ayyavazi]

Hello,

I was wondering, how did you arrive at the die allocations for character creation in Dogs in the Vineyard? Was there a concern for "balance" in order to make sure no character had a statistical advantage over another, or was it guesswork. Or was there just a lot of playtesting tat helped you artrive at those numbers?

Thanks for any insight you offer,

--Norm
