Rolling a lot of dice can be fun, but it gets cumbersome if the pool is too big. Up to 10 is great, up to 20 may be pushing it, over 20 is pretty much right out of consideration as far as I'm concerned. Abstracting that down to a flat modifier (like +35 per 10d6) is really just putting lipstick on the pig. It may put the actual physical mechanics down to reasonable level again, but it still represents bloat.</blockquote>
