@epidiah This is actually one of my favorite things about Forbidden Lands: the satisfying (and fairly easily math-able) feeling of rolling a big bunch of d6s, with the nice perk of occasionally getting a d8, 10, or 12 to roll with it. (12-sided dice are criminally unloved.)
@epidiah it might be my designing style or just personal preference, but I think either 1d6 or a pool of d6 are usually the correct solution. And then I end up using another die (usually a d12) for something 'special', like a secondary mechanic, or something that is triggered circumstantially.
