IMHO yes, they're needed. They allow a degree of flexibility that you
don't get if you only get to roll skill tests -- with a dice pool, you can
put some extra effort into a test. Also they (well, the Combat Pool
anyway) allow a way for high attributes to afect a character's performance
in a system that's otherwise very much skill-based.
