Nothing much to add really except that, like a lot of people I also think the game rules aren't dangerous enough to the PCs (GDW did acknowledge that they felt it would be a pain in the arse to have to make new characters lots of times so they deliberately made the PCs harder to kill).
One way to increase the danger to PCs that doesn't require a substantial rewrite of the weapon damages/rules is to reduce the hitpoints the PCs have so that it's closer to NPCs levels.
