Cortana only does 2d6 if you tell her to "roll dice".

I tried this. Ronald Heaton is going to get a lot of calls...

Sorry, I'm not anywhere that I can confirm this, but I've played with the feature in the past and I'd thought that I could get her to roll correctly if I asked, "Siri, please roll me three six-sided dice." IIRC, she gave me back a ten.

Of course, it's possible I dreamt all of this.

Nifty! Maybe that feature will actually get me to use Siri.

(I'm about 18 months into owning a 4s.)

I asked Siri to roll three six sided dice and she brought up results for "Rule 36 sided dice".

I was too scared to click on the links...

Note: if you use Siri as a player in your game, she is notoriously bloodthirsty and will try to kill NPC's before even talking to them!

Okay, I just tried this, then tried multiples. Got the same result as Pauper.

I edited the request to be "Roll six six-sided die" and Siri responded "It's one."

To quote Siri.. I'm not sure how to respond to that.

I tried "roll 3D6" with Cortana. It searched the Internet for 3D sex.

Immediately switched to D8 for the rest of my (unsuccessful) attempts to bend it to my will.

If I say 'dice' it just rolls 2d6 no matter what else I say. So, just for playing classic traveller then
