Dice macro.

I've been looking for a macro, and I have found a bunch that work off of character sheets but none that work off the dice/macro itself. We're running on a homebrew so character sheets are just word documents. Is there a way to get a macro to check itself for crit success? For example, 1d20cs>15+20 hit with damage 1d12+38. On a hit, it would just roll the 1d12+38 but on a crit it would populate 1d12(auto max)+38x2.  Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Currently, our attack macros look something like this: The attack roll is [[1d20cs>15+22]] vs Ref [[ @{target|target1|ref} ]]. On hit, this attack will deal [[1d12+38]] damage with penetration (5).

Hi Cliff, I think roll templates will be your best bet for that kind of functionality... although since you are a pro user I would highly recommend looking at powercards too for the conditionals. To use roll templates the basic one available to all users isn't flexible enough for your needs (i don't think, i'm not an expert on them really) but you could use a community sheet (which you would then ignore the tab for since you use word docs) to obtain its more complex templates that allow for things like fumble/critical checking. See  this link for info. Again though, i would HIGHLY recommend powercards if you are willing to exploit your APIness :)

While I, and the DM, have a pro account, the rest of our group is running free (shameless Coheed reference). So, while he and I could abuse the ability to API, our others cannot. I'm hoping to find something that benefits the rest of the group as well, if such an option exists. However, if you have links to API info and powercards, I would probably read up on that for personal use later. Thanks again for the help. I'm already perusing the link already provided.

Good news! As long as the DM has a pro subscription then all players in the campaign will benefit =) To that end, I again recommend  powercards  which will allow flexible macros with conditional output.

another vote for using powercards. they will change your life. 

I third PowerCards.

Looks like the dm and I are setting up powercards for the campaign. heh. Thanks for the help, folks.

Loving these power cards. Really give a great look and feel. Just wish I could get the 3D dice to roll. For some reason they won't work while running a !power {{ --emote|@{selected|token_name} attempts to strike @{target|token_name} --format|twill --name|Power Attack --leftsub|At Will --rightsub|Full or Standard --Attack|[[1d20+(@{selected|HD}+8-5)]] vs [[ @{target|target1|ref} ]] REF --Damage|[[((@{selected|HD}/4))d6+1d6+(@{selected|HD}*2)]] vs. DR [[ (@{target|target1|DR}) ]] }} any thoughts on how to enable them again?

3D dice and the API don't play well together unfortunately.

Power Cards are epic. Though Roll Templates are pretty sweet to. Especially if you want to theme your power cards for the campaign setting.
