(without re-designing every facet of the system)Using the +42 bonus as an example: Under the current system your average result on a roll would be 52.5Under the proposed system, the average result would be 3d20+2, or 33.5All that would ensure is that (for example) the fighter who can hit everything with a +42 to hit, would now be able to hit nothing, because his average roll result dropped 19 points.On top of that, you have the issue of iterative attacks - would his next attack be 3d20-3, or 2d20+17? Which dovetails neatly into those bizzarre artifacts of this system that people already brought up: 3d20+1 gives you an average of 32.5, but 2d20+19, an average of 40. Huh? How could that possibly work?This makes the issues Shadowrun always had with TN 6 / TN 7 spot simple in comparison...</blockquote>
