Only costing 99 cents the app allows a roll up to 100 dice and can roll different colored dice to distinguish between different attacks. It can lock dice in place to permit others to be rerolled, and the rolled dice can be organized on screen by dragging them around with your finger to separate hits from misses. The best function in my opinion is that it can list the individual die rolls on the bottom of the screen ie; "2x6, 4x5, 3x3, ......" for quick tallying.

I see it as a time saver and a convenience. My apologies if this is old news.

I like automating dice rolling, for convenience and speeding up play.

But the promethium brigade of code monkeys assume everyone is going to hack the algorithms to 'cheat' and tend to flame down suggestions like this.

And then theres the ones that think the physical manifestation of the dice are the heart of the game blah blah.

It still seems silly that random number generation of an alternate means promotes so much controversy.

b) without the source code, there's no way to prove that the algorithm isn't rigged

I'm off to go call the Plastic Dice Mafia and get someone sent over... ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1494324.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1494324.page GMT
45d6, set target number to 3, roll. Show total amount of rolls exceeding 2.

Now that would be neat and really speed up play.

Disclaimer.
I do prefer using real dice and this app still have the inherent problem of making it difficult for your opponent to keep track. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1498945.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1498945.page GMT 1) People will say you are using rigged devices.
2) People will say that, in order to be 'Fair', the computer will give an entirely balanced set of results i.e. that if you roll 1d6 36 times, you will get 6 of each number (roughly).
3) People will claim that you have re-rolled behind their backs.

I wish it would work, but, at least where I live, it won't.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1499032.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1499032.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1516747.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/289746/1516747.page GMT
