We’ve uploaded the AME web dice roller to the site so you can test out the probabilities and have a way of having a neat way to roll dice using a simple online tool.
It works on mobile (as you can see) and builds in the Nudge mechanics.
This is the first in a series of tools to help AME GMs understand and use the Arcane Manifold Engine system.
Plain Example of an Action
A character attempts to climb a rough stone wall.
The character rolls Dexterity d8 + Athletics d6.
Dice rolled: d8, d6
Result: 6, 1
Outcome:
- The 6 counts as 1 Success.
- The 1 creates 1 Complication.
The character successfully climbs the wall, but the Complication means the ascent is not clean. The GM rules that loose stones fall during the climb, making noise and potentially alerting anyone nearby.
Plain Example of Assistance
Two characters attempt to move a heavy crate blocking a doorway.
Lead: The Lead character rolls Vitality d8 + Athletics d6
Assistant: The Assistant contributes Vitality d10
All dice are rolled together: d8, d6, d10
Result: 7, 5, 1
Outcome:
- The 7 counts as 1 Success.
- The 1 creates 1 Complication.
The crate is successfully moved aside, clearing the doorway.
The Lead decides the Assistant takes the Complication. The Assistant slips while lifting and strains their back, slowing them for the next task.
