    Effect to add damage die

    Is there an effect that will add a specific die to a damage roll? I'm thinking about PFSW, the Rogue's Sneak Attack ability, which adds +d6 damage in certain situations.

    We create a sub attack and add the extra d6 there.
    My players just defeated an army, had a dogfight with aliens, machine-gunned the zombies, stormed the tower, became Legendary and died heroically

    Yours are still on combat round 6

    [Extra:Damage =1d] - rolls an additional d4 with damage
    [Extra:Damage =2d] - rolls an additional d6 with damage
    etc.

    Also,
    [Extra:Trait =2d] - rolls an additional d6 with all trait rolls

    But if it's something the character always gets, like sneak attack, then I'd go with Doswelk's suggestion. One advantage there, is that it will put "sneak attack" (or whatever you name the sub attack) in the chat window. That makes it easier to track what's going on.

    I had been thinking about sub-attacks, but the character likes carrying a lot of weapons. Then again, if they want a lot of weapons, they can deal with a long list in the combat tab; it won’t bother anyone else. Good point about it adding the text though to track what is happening.
