    Hmmm - all excellent info folks. So what I gather - thus far - is that I should look into either a 3d6 methodology, or a percentile vs. probability approach with a 3d10 approach (1s / 10s / 100s) or a
    2d10 (1s / 10s = n/100). I'm definitely going to have to dig back into my old algebra book to calculate model ranges. Talroth - I am definitely taking notes here, lol.

    Ok - I'm going to ask a stupid question now. Lets say that two or three d6 are rolled to determine an outcome whose chances of occurring are 1 to "n", the minimum outcome for a 3d6 roll is "3" if they are rolled simultaniously - so how can you then use that roll when the minimum die roll value is 3>1? How do you determine (justify) a "1" chance in "n" unless you make some kind of adjustments? Apparantly I'ved missed something here. (remember I'm getting senile with age guys - lol).
