Dice and Dimes

Every Dungeons and Dragons player knows that a full set of polyhedral dice is crucial to RPG gameplay.  If you don't have a d20, then just forget about it.  The other day, I came up with a system for substituting polyhedral dice.  Now I'm here to share my incredible wisdom with you commoners.

Poor Man's Polyhedral Dice

You need:
a nickel, a dime, and one common die (d6).

Instructions:
d4: Flip nickel, heads add 2, tails add 1. Flip dime, heads add 2.
d6: use d6
d8: Flip nickel, heads add 2, tails add 1. Flip dime, heads add 2. Roll die, "Even" add 4.
d10: Roll die add result (re-roll on 6). Flip nickel, heads add 5. (1-10, for 0-9 subtract 1 or count 10 as 0)
d12: Roll die add result. Flip nickel, heads add 6.
d20: Roll die add result (re-roll on 6). Flip nickel, heads add 5. Flip dime, heads add 10.


btw, I'm back from Spring Break.  I hope to post more often again.
Until next time fellow pirates.
