Do any of you clever souls have a link to or know of an auto rolling program for the 4th edition steps?

I can find great ones for 2nd and 3 edition, just not forth.

Doesnt even have to be that...just click the step and it rolls result.

Id like something similar for gming 4th edition.

Im a roofer by trade ....so if your roof leaks all good i can come and fix it no matter what the problem is, but im not even remotely computer clever, so cant make a dice roller, just thought someone would have one somewhere)

I am a specialist for crystal growth analysis of semiconductors (light crystals of our time if you want) so not of much use in real world problems that actually matter...

I would PAY for a simulator that allows me to quickly have an idea what the odds of a fight are

10 bucks. I presume there will be more willing to do so.

Roll20 has a dice roller included, am not sure how much Earthdawn is already in there.

I have a dice roller that runs under Roll20.
PM me and I can pass on the source code.
However somebody at the table needs to be a roll20 PRO subscriber to use it.

Hi Chris,

this is a very kind offer.

I have tried Roll20, especially with their PRO feature to create Dungeons with fog of war and dynamic lighting. I have to say I really liked the feature but it took me too much time to use it properly so I canceled the subscription.

I would however be interested to use it as a player.

Anyone gaming with this?

Thanks for the offer, i appreciate it, but i cant really warrant a tenner a month just for a dice roller. If i have no joy here will try and persuade one of our group to write one. Its not essential to playing, just will save a lot of time during a meeting.

Also for Roll20, but doesn't require a paid subscription.

It'll ask you for your Step, how many Karma you want to roll, then add it all together.

Thx Doug, all still a bit complex for me though.

I will use this as holds true from step 4-18....which to be honest covers a shed load, and roll actual dice outside of that.

to be fair it covers most normal situations!

Is this for a PbP game or online or in person?
