Prince Valiant is relatively light-hearted but not in any sense a silly game - but in the context of typical dice pools from 4 to 10+ dice, morale bonuses can add +1 or +2 dice.Burning Wheel is (by default) neither light-hearted nor silly, but when I play my knight of a holy order I'm more likely to encounter a member of my family than a random stranger, because I have a +1D affiliation with my family which is a direct bonus die to my Circles checks (which by default are on 3 dice).The way, as a player, I know what is possible is by having a good knowledge of how obstacles are set and how my dice pool is built.</blockquote>
