Great reports, glad you're enjoying the system. I'm enjoying reading about it!I think you're right about the dice. All dice games have swing to them at times. For me the question is, is there enough tactical choice and decision making for it to be engaging. Rangers does that with event cards and interesting scenarios, keeping the system itself quite simple and pretty high in randomness. SS&SS seems to be more involved but lacks the narrative scenario structure (pending the forthcoming supplement from a member of these boards!)
Can't wait for that scenario book and an eventual dungeon crawl expansion for SS. I too prefer SS to Rangers, but the game sorely needs expansion material.
