He counts this as 4 + 2 = 6.<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Orkworld: 2 or more of a number count as number +1 per additional of that number in the pool.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Silhouette System (Heavy Gear, Jovian Chronicles, Tribe 8), (skill)d6, keep highest; if highest is a 6 and multiple sixes, each additional adds 1 to the total; lower dice do not add thusly.</li> </ul></blockquote>
