Hi!

Don't worry, this is but a thought that came up during a conversation
after the games on Saturday. I have no intention of making this
"official" if if I wind up doing it.

The reason for leaving the modifiers the same is that I beleive the
modifiers in the current game are too high, for just a d6. There are -6
saves in epic, which I think should really exist, since this means no
save anyway. In a d10 system a -6 is still real bad but saveable.

This is but a random idea thrown out there for comment, some like the
flexibility of higher die types, others dont care. Still its interesting
to speculate.
