Badger Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 ....something with 3d6. I guess I am wondering if anybody has a table to show the percentages (theoretical ) of rolling each 3d6 number between 3 and 18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestidigitator Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Re: Curiosity about chances of rolling...... Err...yeah. This one's been done ad nauseam. You might do a thread search with terms like, "probability distribution spreadsheet," or somesuch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Liaden Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Re: Curiosity about chances of rolling...... The "Free Stuff" section of this website has an XLS spreadsheet which calculates the percentage chance of rolling any number on any total of d6s. You can find that here, under "Utilities."
