wrong. Yeah, the samples I included early in the thread were just ten rolls of each, but I kept doing it using two different dice rollers, too. Not once was the result anywhere
to such a tiny percentage. I don't care what some spreadsheet says, either your math
not understanding what your numbers are supposed to represent. Because, in the real world, your chance of getting 3 or more net hits in a contest between 18d6 vs. 9d6 is
less than 1% or even 2.25%. It's well over 50%. I seriously doubt the numbers will change
much after millions or even billions of rolls. Maybe you're doing it backwards or something, and calculating the chances of the 9d6 winning? I just dunno.
. The dice syntax is 18d6.hits(5) and 9d6.hits(5). You can roll up to 50 times each with that roller. The sample I used earlier came from a private forum I'm on, so I can't really link to that roller (you have to be a member and an active member of a game in order to use it). The spoiler below contains yet another sample using the linked roller, just to drive the fact home some more.
