  As a old wargamer (not a role-player, though), this might come in handy. I've tinkered with the idea of converting Britannia into a Tk app. I even started it, just making the population chart and the turn chart.

    I'm curious how your module differs from the Games::Die module (other than the fact that I can see your documentation online).

    One difference is that my module was applied for and written in 1999, when there was very little in Games::*. Only I never got around to uploading it to CPAN. I haven't looked at Games::Die.

    I've always liked to know the probability of rolling "x" with whatever dice combination I'm using. Any chance of adding some sort of probability calculator?

    I've got a version of the module with an object-oriented interface which was submitted to me by someone else; it has methods for all sorts of statistical things. One reason why I didn't upload Games::Dice was that I was wondering whether (and how) to integrate that code. I'm still thinking about it.
