Using Hero Dice in the PbP forum

Post by Dustland »

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but is there a better way to handle a character using a Hero Die to gain an extra die to roll (3d6) in the forum other than hitting Dice/3d6/Dice? I've gotten spoiled on the Bash button!

Unfortunately, the bash roller code doesn't include a flag for hero dice, although it could potentially be modified for that. In the meantime, best I can think of would be to roll [ dice ]1d6[ /dice ] first, then use the bash roller code and add that total into the second position. So if the 1d6 was a 4, and you have a x3 multiplier, you could then do [ bash ]3,4[ /bash ]. You'd still have to handle doubles manually, though. Or just use the bash roller normally, and then roll 1d6 after and add it in manually.
