Charge Distance Probabilities

Cross reference movement distance with charge distance and read the probability of success off the right side. Working out the probabilities with swiftstride was a bit of a pain but still interesting.

Why bother having 4, 5, 6, etc. on there at all? It's going to be constant, and each amount will simply be "whatever the dice roll + X" in every instance, so just leave X out.

The only thing that varies is what the dice roll.

If you think it's a pain to work out the probabilities, check out the Troll Dice Roller sometime:

So for a regular 2d6, just put in "sum 2d6."

For Swiftstride, use "sum largest 2 3d6."

It even does handy graphs.

Short people got no reason, and that includes Dwarfs!

This just makes my brain hurt.

Good point about the charge distance fail range. Being M+9 inches away may maximize the chance of a failed charge followed by a successful charge. I'll have to work that one out too!

The conditional probablility math was interesting. I know there are computer programs that bf&i the solution but where is the fun in that?

Your brain will get better.
