Re: (TFT) scaled stats

["gem6868" <gem6868@verizon.net>]

I think that what's being noted is that the use of multiple dice, added 
together, for a result is always a bell-curve, not linear.  2d6 and 3d6 both 
work that way.  While I can rattle off the 2d6 from memory, the average is 
'7' (most number of combinations) and with 3d6 it's 10-11 (most 
combinations, averaging to 10.5 I believe).  I'm not a math person, so 
someone else will have to provide details.

I like the idea of sluffing off the paperwork!  However, I think in most 
medieval/renaissance settings, the characters would get kacked before they 
can "make it to the top".  But sure, you should give them a fighting chance.
