A RPG system module for Alea Iacta Est implementing Brass Age
This command implements the dice rule system of Brass Age and can work in three modes: Initiative mode, Notation mode and Extended mode. The first one is a simple dice + modifier mode, while the others will calculate successes based on potential, threshold, exploding tens, automatic successes and incremented results.
This mode is a simple way to resolve initiative, rolling 1d10 and summing the current fatigue value.
This is a shortcut for the extended mode,translating a single P/T notation (13/6) to -p 13 -t 6.
This mode will roll up to 10d10 - depending on the potential - exploding any 10 obtained, then check for success against the threshold and, if the potential is >= 10 adding the relative automatic successes, and doing the dice increment on a dice according to the rules, trying to achieve the maximum number of successes.
Passing these parameters, the associated modifier will be enabled:
-v: Will enable a more verbose mode that will show a detailed version of every result obtained in the roll.

or: ba1 -n <diceNotation>
or: ba1 -p <potentialValue> -t <thresholdValue>
Description:
This command implements the dice rule system of Brass Age and
can work in three modes: Initiative mode, Notation mode and
Extended mode. The first one is a simple dice + modifier
mode, while the others will calculate successes based on
potential, threshold, exploding tens, automatic successes and
incremented results.
Options:
-p, --potential=potentialValue
-t, --threshold=thresholdValue
Threshold for the dice pool between 10 and 5. Requires
potential
-n, --notation=diceNotation
Roll in P/T notation
-i, --initiative=fatigueValue
Do an initiative check
-h, --help Print the command help
-v, --verbose Enable verbose output
