dice roll "drop lowest"

[Vudo]

Hey forum,

any chance somebody can create an extension that lets one roll 3 dice and drop the lowest one? That would be excellent :)

MoreCore can do this.

Good grief, never noticed.

Gawd, neither did I. <shame>

There's been a few necro-threads lately - I wonder why?

with over 40,000 threads the number of necro posts is statistically pretty insignificant...

True - but just lately (last 10 days or so) I've noticed a few more than "normal". Is this just the fact that I've been more observant, is it a statistical blip, or is it a trend or something else (perhaps even part of some nefarious plan - BWHAHAHAHAHAHA)/

Its an interesting question (to me, anyway). :)

Just to note, the Yggdrasill ruleset also does this for its skill rolls. Rolling several d10 dice, then discarding all but the two highest. Oh, and 10's explode.

I'll just take this moment to bring to everyone's attention / remind everyone (and do just a small tad of bragging) that the Die Engine inside the DORCore can roll *any* (I believe) RPG-dice-mechanic: Exploding, Keep Highest, Keep Lowest, Pool Dice, Sum, Multiply, Subtract, Divide, Number Of Successes/Failures, Degree Of Success/Failure, "Raises/Lowers", and/or any combination of the above - on the full range of dice including d66 (non-standard die (ie d7, d9, etc) coming soon) via Die Roll, Tower Roll, /die or /tower command - ready to go, out of the box, no XML or LUA coding required (coding still required to attach rolls to Character Sheet Objects - but no more difficult than coding to attach "standard" CoreRPG Rolls to Character Sheet Objects).

Just saying...
