You can use the Partial Defaulting rules from the Companion (second
edition, page 47) for this. In short, you use the average of the two
numbers of dice, and one-half the modifier. Thus, you'd get 3 or 4 dice
((6 + 1) / 2, the Companion doesn't say whether to round up or down) and a
+2 modifier instead of a +4.
