Tell me about your favorite houserules and rulings in the #osr (ish) games you run/play. What elements have you changed or tinkered around with? I want to know.

#InMyOsrGame I often allow characters of all classes to use any melee weapon, but max damage is always tied to highest damage dice that would be available to the class. In B/X (#OSE) a magic-user would therefore always inflict d4 damage (dagger), even when they are wielding a sword.
But why, Bodo? Because. Because sword-wielding wizards are cool. Following this approach, damage is rather a class ability than a weapon property. #osr
