Say what? Not sure what you mean there, but skills were capped at 8 (9 with specialisations).

Lets go back to the older edition where if you had 20 dice with a minigun to hit something, and the gun explicitly states you roll 5X that number of dice... 100 Dice. Sad thing is, I am not joking, that is literally how it used to work. Armor doesn't really matter much against a dice pool of 100. The only game system that is worse in terms of number of dice rolled is Exalted 1st edition, but I won't get into that here.

And last time I did algebra, it told me that 100 Dice > 14 Dice.
I'm guessing that was 1st edition, because I've never even had 20 dice base to throw let alone had to multiply it!!
