Are d20 based abilites too difficult to roll?

I think D20s are most valuable not for what they can do, but for how your opponent has to account for what they can do. In Elstree's "fun with runa" post he demonstrates this. Even though Runa's power did nothing, it forced bunjee to focus a great deal of effort in killing her. As Elstree acknowledges, had he taken advantage of that confusion it was potentially game changing.

If my opponent has Sudema I have to make a choice - focus on her and take whatever damage their other units can dish out or put her on the back burner, priority-wise and potentially suffer the devestating consequences.

Thats a good point, but when it comes to decisions like that, I typically let my opponents order marker placement make my decision for me. :P
