Subject: TN 6, New rules
Date: Thu Nov 29 21:15:01 2001
Before everyone goes and gets their panties up in a bundle redesigning the
dicing rules for SR, remember that the rules as they are (and, actually, I DO
use the 'every 6 above the target number is an extra success' house rule)
count not just whether or not you succeeded, but also -how-well- you
succeeded. You shot him; did you plug him, or did you wing him? You patched
the computer -- but how fast? You sang the song -- but how well?

Extra successes count for a lot in all versions of SR. While revamping the
dice rules may seem easy, remember you'll need to account for extra successes
and the like.
