There are not many sourcebooks in 1e like there was for 2e and beyond. I'll be using the core stuff, Unearthed Arcana, Dungeoneer's and Wilderness Survival Guides. This will be based in Greyhawk so use that pantheon.
Since the advancement tables in 1st edition varied by a lot, will you be using xp to determine our starting level or the actual level?
For example a Fighter that just turned 5th level with 18,001xp's will need +13,000xp's before reaching 6th level. Meanwhile a Thief with the same xp's would already 5th level and only +2,000 away from 6th level. The original game used these discrepancies in level to balance out the power between classes. So a 5th level Fighter would be about equal to a 6th level Thief. Making everyone 5th level would handicap the Thief. It's late so I hope I'm making sense.
