It may be a style thing as you say, but for the core rules a decision had to be made.There's a difference between an adrenaline rush brought on by excitement, and one brought on by dread. The save-or-die roll is different than a craps roll - there is nothing to be gained, only something to be lost. That's an important difference.Why would The Complete Book of Dice Games include rules for card games? Anyway, this posited solution, if used for every playstyle issue, would result in a PHB twice its actual size.</blockquote>
