The Onyx Path dice roller app does a pretty good job of adapting to the different games to address the issue Eddy mentioned about the dice being confusing.
Oh totally, and there are lots of specialized tools for that. But it goes into the same area I mentioned with the Fantasy Flight version of Star Wars — it requires an extra tool. It’s not a deal breaker in many cases, but it adds a layer of logistics.
