Dice Rolls Not Available With New Forum

  • We can now add generated dice rolls to our posts using the 'Roll' tag (button is sixth from right, beside spoiler button)


    Use the xdy method to identify your rolls, where:
    x=Number of dice
    y=Number of sides


    [html][roll]1d6[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 1d6 : 4, total 4[/blockquote]
    [html][roll]3d12[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 3d12 : 8, 3, 5, total 16[/blockquote]
    If you have a modifier to your roll you can include it as below.
    [html][roll]1d10+2[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 1d10+2 : 4 + 2, total 6[/blockquote]
    If you want the modifier to apply to the total rolled only:
    [html][roll]2d10+2[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 2d10+2 : 6, 1 + 2, total 9[/blockquote]
    If you want the modifier to apply to each die rolled:
    [html][roll]1d10+2x2[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 1d10+2 : 5 + 2, total 7
    Rolled 1d10+2 : 8 + 2, total 10[/blockquote]
    The modifier or purpose of the roll can be included by using curly brackets. This will replace the default 'Rolled' term:
    [html][roll]{Athletics}1d20+5[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Athletics 1d20+5 : 18 + 5, total 23[/blockquote]
    [html][roll]{To Hit}1d20+5{Damage}1d8+3[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]To Hit 1d20+5 : 7 + 5, total 12
    Damage 1d8+3 : 7 + 3, total 10[/blockquote]


    So putting these elements together like:
    My Monk has advantage and slashes with his longsword then follows up with an open handed punch
    [html][roll]{To Hit}1d20+5x2{Damage}1d8+3[/roll][/html]


    [html][roll]{To Hit}1d20+3x2{Damage}1d4+3[/roll][/html]



    Would result in:
    My Monk has advantage and slashes with his longsword then follows up with an open handed punch
    [blockquote]To Hit 1d20+5 : 15 + 5, total 20


    To Hit 1d20+5 : 10 + 5, total 15
    Damage 1d8+3 : 4 + 3, total 7[/blockquote]
    [blockquote]To Hit 1d20+3 : 12 + 3, total 15


    To Hit 1d20+3 : 20 + 3, total 23
    Damage 1d4+3 : 3 + 3, total 6[/blockquote]


    There are a couple of other features:


    Reroll results that are not greater than or less than a certain value:
    Greater [html][roll]3d20^10[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 3d20^10 : 3 3 7 12, 3 9 1 20, 6 10 13, total 45[/blockquote]
    Lesser [html][roll]3d20v10[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 3d20v10 : 8, 9, 10 1, total 18[/blockquote]


    Remove results that are not greater than or less than a certain value:
    Greater [html][roll]3d20>10[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 3d20>10 : 13, 2, 7, total 13[/blockquote]
    Lesser [html][roll]3d20<10[/roll][/html]
    [blockquote]Rolled 3d20<10 : 8, 20, 1, total 9[/blockquote]
    Note that, although you can use preview to see your roll, the results will be recalculated when you actually post.
