If you look it well it is not so bad. I forgot and I’ve add an explanation for how to turn the “binomial coefficient” to a real number. I think that if you just replace the values p, n, k I believe you can make it. Give it a try.

If anyone deserves a dice achievement icon, it's you, Patroclus. Thanks for posting the math for us, as well as a clear example of how to plug in numbers into the binomial formula. I'd dare say most of us would be lost without you, and less than most of us would be lost with you. ;)

Thanks Daedalus, it’s an honor to hear that from you. |_P

ps: maybe I’ll make a program to do the calculations, and expand it to something more useful for everyone...

Hi guys,
I don't think it has been mentioned in this thread, but for new dice this is a great site: http://www.shopping-guru.de/index.php?m ... Path=94_98
It's German, but they understand english fine. I have their sets and they are great, the dice with different faces give a lot of new options, and the white dice replace the old ones just fine! I love the dice with double skulls or double shield results!

We know about these dice. There should be a thread somewhere. I have some of them and will write a small review soon.
Check out my YouTube channel Boardgame Heaven, and drop me a sub please!
