RPG a Day 2018: 21. dice mechanic?

RPG a Day 2018

21. Which dice mechanic appeals to you?

More than one die. I started with a 2D6 bell curve in Fighting Fantasy, and moved on to dice pools as soon as they became a common design feature. I’m a lot happier with D&D 5th Edition than previous versions because you can choose when to use Advantage to roll 2D20 and use the best (and the DM can reverse that with Disadvantage) in a nice simple not-relying-on-one-die system. If I were less lazy I’d probably switch Buffy to 2D6.
