Maybe I am just too tired and not thinking clearly, but can some one explain the following to me:
As SR3 is, we have a variable target number, and generally throw (notwithstanding combat pool and whatnot) the same number of dice for a given test every time. Now it sounds as if modifiers will take the form of throwing a variable number of dice against a fixed TN? How does this streamline the proccess? You are essentially doing the same thing as you were before aren't you? |
