As someone who just designed a tabletop dice game...I totally rolled a bunch of dice. Distribution charts are good for a sanity and balance check, but rolling the dice gives you more of a feel for the game, what you can expect to get with any given roll, and give you a feel for how to manipulate the dice (physically), see how fiddly it can be, how much time it takes for turns, etc.
But you can't replicate that bit with a computer program too well.
