Subtract 1. Multiply by 4. Roll another d6 re-rolls 5s and 6s. Add to your first result.

I would also have come up with a number in that range. I'd add the two together, subtract the highest number in the range if the total was over this, and that would be their 'roll'. Sure, it relies on a trustworthy DM, but if one doesn't trust their DM to play fair, why do they play with them?<br /><br />This dice rolling method took us through many adventures on hiking and camping trips when I was in Scouts, often while we were hiking or camping or doing whatever tasks we had assigned. Just a thought. Lloringholdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06952857454233695742noreply@blogger.com
