I think the best way to handle this using the embedded dice roller would be to roll d6 2x's without modifiers.

Is that because you want a roll as 2-12 rather than 1-12? Are there other special or unique rolls needed in Traveller?

Yes the rolls need to be 2-12 with the modifier added at the end instead of each dice being modified

Then an option to roll 2-12 and then apply bonuses as you normally do will be a better solution? This might have applications in other Role-playing Games so I will examine the code now.

You did not say if there were other special rolls so I can take care of it at the same time.

The only thing I can think of is there are random tables that use what the book refers to as d66, a range of 11-66

What I will introduce is a starting number with a default of "1" but the Player can choose it to be "2" thus making the D12 selection 2-12 regardless of the number of rolls made.

11-66 is definitely a strange roll. Is that a regular part of the game of a one off thing for the Referee? Perhaps I need to add in a range roll field where any number to any number under 99 can be made.

Basically the system gets the 11-66 range by rolling 2d6 and using the results on the face of them by putting them together. So if you rolled 2d6 and rolled a 2 and a 4 the result would be 24. It is mostly used for random tables and I cannot think of any instance at the moment in which the players would roll it, mostly the referee and so far I've just done it manually.

Since this is a roll mostly for the Referee I did not bother with it.

Aericsteele's Traveller Players may wish to review the latest update to our custom Embedded Dice system which allows you to make an alternate 2D6 roll with bonuses as many times as you want: How to make a 2D6 roll easy.

For any questions about this please ask it in the same link as this Thread is reserved for Reviews of Aericsteele's Traveller game.
