Your munchkinizing is weak. You may roll 13 dice, but you do
*not* have a skill of 13. The difference is mighty, and I see an awful
lot of would-be munchkins confusing the issue. For one thing, you can
only add Combat Pool equal to your *skill,* not the number of dice you
roll. So physads who buy scads of extra dice with powers can still only
add 6 CP dice to an attack.
