How the hell does a d66 give 36 values when there are 55 values from 11-66? Also how cool are these d66?

    Because you can't generate some of those values with the method, namely any number with a digit higher than 6.

      Didn't answer my question. There are 55 numbers between 11 and 66, so

      Oh I get it now

        yeah, you can't roll a 17, 18, 19, or 20 on d66, idiot. There are a lot of gaps like that.

          Rolled 57, 23, 16, 17, 41, 1, 53, 37, 19, 60, 3, 54, 65, 35, 7, 30, 1, 64, 45, 45 = 673 (20d66)

          Yes you can. On a d66 you can roll anything from 1-66 its in the name.

            See? That's why OP is moronic. There's way more than 36 possible results.

            d66 means 2d6 like in

            Rolled 4, 4 = 8 (2d6)

            Because it's literally just 1d6 in the ones place and 1d6 in the tens place. Also those dice look like shit

            morons

              Also there are either 54 or 56 values "between" 11 and 66, depending on whether you count the endpoints. Not 55.

              It's a stupid naming convention then and hence stems the confusion. dN = [1,N], not 2d(N/11) or whatever.

              It should be called "d6 by d6"

                d62 (or maybe d26) would be much less confusing. You could still mistake the Cartesian square with arithmetical, but at least neither is already established convention like with dN.

                Frick, those 2 were meant to be superscript. It's like: d6^2.

    Those dice seem way less practical than just rolling two normal d6s with different colors.

      They're from some gimmick yahtzee game, and get peddled on the side for novelty items.
      I have a few from a gift copy of this. they're, as you say, not really good for anything except maybe battletech cluster hit spam if there's enough different colors of them and you don't have a tackle box.

        They were featured over on the Steve Jackson Games website. Instead of this, they should use all that Munchkin money to revive INWO.

      This is actually a good question and one I had for awhile once I first started looking into JTTRPGs.

      11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16;
      21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26;
      31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36;
      41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46;
      51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56;
      61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66.

      This is the answer.
