The second edition of SLA Industries has a new dice rolling mechanism. Not sure if its something common elsewhere. It's quite complex, not sure if it can be implemented somehow. All dice are d10. There is a single success dice and a number of skill dice (max 5) based on a players skill and stat combined. There are several target numbers to aim for based on the difficulty of the task Simple: 4 Challenging: 7 Complex: 10 Strenuous: 13 Insane: 16 In this small example, the operative has a Complex task to perform. He/she has a combined skill/stat rating of 5. He/she rolls the success dice and scores a 6, adds the combined skill/stat rating of 5 to achieve a total result of 11. This means the test is a success. If it had been less than 10, the test would be a fail. He/she also rolls one skill dice for each point in the skill she he/she has plus an additional 1. In this example, the character has a skill of 2, so an additional 3 skill dice are rolled. They come up as: 4+5 (fail) 6+5 (pass) 7+5 (pass)
This means that the character has had an exceptional success. There are additional modifiers which may be placed upon each dice (negative or positive). It's a complex beast, and no games are currently on rpol that utilise it currently. | |||||||||||||||

This is an implementation of the request, it obviously no way for me to track success or failure | |||||||||||||||

Success die failing but 4+ skill rolls succeeding. This the mentioned "success through experience". Success die failing and all skill rolls failing. "Serious failure" Success die failing but 1-3 skill rolls succeeding. Just "failure". There also seem to be a bunch of different phrases it uses, are these correct? "Simple success" was one that popped up. Happy to clone what it's outputting but I don't want to copy something if it's a phrase/mechanic the system doesn't actually use. | |||||||||||||||

Correct on the serious failure Correct on the "failure" Simple success is when the success die passes, but all skill rolls fail. | |||||||||||||||
