So if you roll 11, 15, 6, the other three are 14 (25-11), 10 (25-15), 18 (25-6, max 18).- Take a deck of cards and throw out all but the cards numbered 1-6. Deal 6 piles of 4 cards and drop the lowest card from each pile. (very similar to 4d6, but much more balanced)- Draw up a table of 6 (or 20) acceptable sets of scores. Players roll a d6 (or d20) to pick one of these.</blockquote>
