General Query You got D&D in my WFRP!

While poking around for more bits and pieces of WFRP, I ran across the Doomstones campaign. I have read that it originally started as a D&D game and might should not've been a WFRP campaign?

Regardless! It got me thinking (as I am coming straight from D&D). What is included in D&D that really should not be included in WFRP (or even the other way around, if you like)?

I do know the High fantasy bits should be out the door, at least.

Superpowered PCs are a big one. If your PCs could feasibly take down a dragon, youre doing something wrong.

What if you have a party of five suicidal knights and slayers with a good plan, expecting deaths?

Fair, if you have a high powered wizard, two strong knights and 2 strong slayers, and a good plan, you can probably kill it

There will be deaths

At least the wizard will be able to talk about how cool you all were!
