 |
|
It seems to me I remember reading a RAW about an option to "take the average" of a skill, assuming all dice rolled a '3' result, in place of rolling when the chance of failure is low on a routine task. However, I can't seem to find this function in the rules now that I'm looking for it.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? |

| It is on page 77 of the Star Wars REUP main book. |

I wouldn't consider that RAW since reup is a fan made sourcebook.

There's also a rule from Mini6 which reduces pretty much everything to 3(xD-1D)+y+wild die... so if you have 5D you roll 1D+12

Sounds like it was inspired by "taking 10" in d20.
I'm not opposed to an idea like this, or even allowing characters with a certain amount of dice in a skill to forgo the roll altogether.
I might require Luke to roll TK for his lightsaber on Hoth, but I wouldn't require Obi-Wan to roll it to get the star map thingy in Ep2. |
