I want to make a macro to count distance between to point which are in different height. This what I got now: /roll ?{Distance?}*2+?{Height?}*2 Can any one help to ad a  nth root to the macro?

Raise it to the reciprocal. Square Root =n**(1/2) or  n**.5 Cube Root = n**(1/3) or n**.333

Keep in mind if you are doing this for D&D 5e, diagonals don't count, so the Pythagorean Theorem is h = greater of (a,b) . Or in plain language: range is the greater of the normal horizontal range, or the difference in altitude.

Thank you. I use Eucledian and it is for Mordheim and maybe for other skirmish war games.

You're welcome. I only brought up 5e because it is the 600 pound gorilla. :)
