Dice: D6 and D3

Description

VoidSiege uses six-sided dice, shown as D6.

Some rules ask for a D3. A D3 is rolled using a normal D6.


Expanded Description

A D6 is a standard six-sided die with results from 1 to 6.

When a rule tells you to roll a D6, roll one six-sided die and use the result shown.

To roll a D3, roll a D6, divide the result by 2, and round up.

This gives the following results:

D6 Roll D3 Result
1-2 1
3-4 2
5-6 3

Example

A rule tells you to roll 1D3.

You roll a D6 and get a 5.

A 5 becomes a D3 result of 3, so the result of the roll is 3.
