Open-ended variations #8
Description
Several games use mechanics that allow one or more dice to be rerolled (often a die that rolls the highest possible number), with each successive roll being added to the total. Terms for this include open-ended rolling, exploding dice, and penetration rolls. Games that use such a system include Feng Shui, and Savage Worlds. On Anydice the function to make dice explode on their highest value is called quite simply explode. Another common notation shorthand for exploding dice is to use an exclamation point: AdX! or 6d6!.[3]
