Just wanted to run this by folks. Maybe get some constructive input.

One of my players and I have been talking about the condition monitor, and we never really liked how an average human who is one box away from incapacitated suffers less of a dice modifier (-2) than a big tough troll who is one box away from incapacitate (-5 dice).

So, that being said, we came up with idea of blacking out the unused boxes on the condition monitor vertically instead of horizontally. Starting the blackout at the bottom right corner and going up until you hit the top, then going up from the centre bottom. However, when you are taking damage, you are still marking horizontally from the top left. (did I make sense?)

Anyway, just looking for input.
