Rolls in Star Wars D6

Your skills and attributes are a sum of d6 dice and pips. The player rolls against a set difficulty or by a opposed roll, depending on what the GM deems in the situation. There is a small variance in how the rolls are made between the different editions, summed below.

1E

You roll the amount of dice in your skill, adding the number of pips to the roll. Currently the sheet's roll buttons uses wild die, see other editions below:

2E

In 2E, one die in all rolls are replaced with the wild die that explode on a roll of 6, i.e. you can roll it again and add the result to the sum. This can be continued if the wild die rolls 6 again.

If the wild die rolls a one, the GM can decide to deduct the value of the wild die and the highest die you rolled from the sum.
Note:This reduction is not done automatically.

API Script:Wild Dice can automate it.

Example roll for 5d+2

(5 - 1)d6cf0cs7 + 2 + 1d6!cf1cs6

R&E and REUP

In R&E and REUP , one die in all rolls are replaced with the wild die that explode on a roll of 6, i.e. you can roll it again and add the result to the sum. This can be continued if the wild die rolls 6 again.

If the wild die rolls a one, the GM can decide that:

a complication happens(independent for if the roll succeeded or not) or
deduct the value of the wild die and the highest die you rolled from the sum
nothing
