RE: [FMAS] FMASuper

To reply to this and your last e-mail, beth, I was laboring under the 
misconception that, just as in DSII, the FMA system in general
discouraged 
the use of multiple dice rolled and added up (As in DS II when a roll of
D10 
and D 8 means you roll both, and take the higher result).  I suppose you

COULD do some sort of progression like 1D4, 1D6, 1D8, 1D10, 1D12,
1D12+1D4, 
1D12+1D6, ETC....
