[QUOTE="Ozmar, post: 1495082, member: 8021"] What we really need (to clear up confusion) is the following simple system: You have six dice: 2 10-siders, 2 4-siders, a 20-sider and a 7-sider. They are numbered and colored as follows: [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] d10: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] d10: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23 [COLOR=Lime]Green [/COLOR] d20 ("The Prime Die"): 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 93, 94, 96, 97, 98 [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] d4: 2, 3, 4, 5 [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] d4: 16, 18, 20, 29 [COLOR=Purple]Purple [/COLOR] d7 ("The Wild Die"): 62, 74, 75, 81, 82, 84, 86 Here is the simple algorithm (note: you can roll all six dice at once, in a handy collectible dice cup). 1. Roll all dice. 2. Read the result as the product of the [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] d10 and the [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] d10. 3. For example: [B]If[/B] the [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] die is 7 and the [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] die is 4, [B]then[/B] the result is 28. 4. [B]If[/B] the product is greater than 100, [B]then[/B] read the result off of the [COLOR=Lime]Green [/COLOR]d20 (the "Prime Die"). 5. [B]If[/B] the [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] die is 2, 3, 5 or 7 [B]and[/B] the [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] die is 1, 2, 3, or 4 [I](and it is not the case that the [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] is 7 and the [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] is 4)[/I] [B]then[/B] read the result as the product of the [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] d4 and the [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] d4. 6. [B]If[/B] any of the following 4 combos occur on the d20s, [B]then[/B] read the result as the product of the [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] d4 and the [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] d4: ([COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] , [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] ) = ([COLOR=Cyan]2[/COLOR],[COLOR=Red]5[/COLOR]), ([COLOR=Cyan]3[/COLOR],[COLOR=Red]6[/COLOR]), ([COLOR=Cyan]5[/COLOR],[COLOR=Red]6[/COLOR]) or ([COLOR=Cyan]7[/COLOR],[COLOR=Red]5[/COLOR]). 7. [B]If[/B] you are reading the results off of the d4s [B]and[/B] the result is greater than 100, [B]or[/B] the result is equal to 40, [B]or[/B] the [COLOR=Red]Red [/COLOR] d4 is 5 and the [COLOR=Cyan]Blue [/COLOR] d4 is 16, [B]then[/B] read the results off of the "Wild Die". This simple, easy to use, intuitive 7-step system using 6 colorful, distinctive, collectible dice will greatly simplify the learning experience of any new gamer and increase the fun and enjoyment for everyone!! :) I invite other geeky ENworlders to check my math. I'm pretty sure that this system is statistically accurate and will generate numbers from 1 to 100 with an even chance of any result. Later! Ozmar the Dice Visionaire P.S. - Yes, I know the Prime Die doesn't contain all primes. I only had 16 primes left and wanted a 20-sided die, so I slapped four more numbers on there. ;) P.P.S. - I am not sure how to make a d7, so you could use a d8 and have the last face be a "Wild Symbol" that indicates that something "Wild" happened! Creative DMs could "Go Wild" with the results. P.P.P.S. - I think I need to go to bed... :) [/QUOTE]
