It's been a while since I played Classic, but I definitely stand by my BBoD (and the cluster hits currently "as is" with HAGs and LRMs in clusters of 5, LB/Flak/RAC/SRMs as single hits)
2/3 pilot in a Turkina E (1 HAG40, 6 SSRM6) shooting at a Berserker that had recently shut down due to overheat issues (already running hot for TSM, Loki D hit him with Plasma Cannons... guy rolled snake eyes on to avoid Shutdown). Needless to say, everything hit >:D
Rolled like crap for the cluster hits on the HAG (Medium range for 24 total damage, 4 locations at @ 5 pts, 1@ 4 dmg). Rolled those manually, which included a head hit for 5, but the rest sandpapered both arms and a leg.
Then came the 36 locations for 2 damage each. Enter the BBOD.
Realizing - with the head hit that round for 5 points - I announced aloud that I only needed to score 4 head hits for the kill.

36 pairs of dice for 36 locations exactly. Scored 6 head hits, 7 TAC, and the rest pretty much chewed out the right torso (through the arm).
I had elected to roll the TACs manually, but the player just shredded his paper and removed the mini from the table.
With two other players at the table - none of which were wielding cluster weapons - I was asked to not use the box (for fear of cheating). Of course, I obliged... but the next attack by my Turkey hit with 5 Streaks, and we spent quite a few long minutes rolling 30 locations, marking damage, rinse, repeat. (Gamemaster broke out his MagicTheGathering Life counter to count for us because we lost track, twice). In the end, 3 head hits and a TAC to an ammo bin = long awaited kill scored (same opponent). With enough ammo and armor, I went on to a third kill but didn't roll for the missiles because the HAG went internal on an InnerSphere side torso with an XL engine (though, based on the damage output alone, it would have popped every last bubble).
Whether I use 36 boxes or 12, having my BBoD is a timesafer and enemy maker.
