That’s why I like Shadowrun’s rolling system for skill checks better than d20s: It weights the rolls so that middle-of-the-road rolls are much more likely than the extremes on either side, which feels more true-to-life. It also makes upgrades to your dice pool more meaningful than a simple +n modifier with a D20.
