Wrath & Glory Dice Mechanics

Hey I'm trying to run a new game of Wrath & Glory and have no idea how to do the dice pools. For those that don't know, Wrath & Glory uses "Pools of d6's" wherein you roll a varying pool of d6's and then count 4 or 5's as a success. That's the easy part. The hard part is if you roll a 6, it counts as two successes. What is a macro I can have my players use to count 4 and 5's as one success and 6's as two?

If you only care about the number of successes, you can create a rollable table with 3 entries: 2 : 1 weight 1 : 2 weight 0 : 4 weight names something like "wgd6" then roll some number of those: [[ 5t[wgd6] ]] That will give you a total number of successes with the correct statistical distribution. If you need to be able to tell what numbers were rolled, you can instead create 6 entries: 2 [6] 1 [5] 1 [4] 0 [3] 0 [2] 0 [1] And the rolled number will show up in brackets on the hover of the result:

You cant do 0, 1, and 2 successes, directly, but you can do -1, 0, and 1, and then add 1/die. So the following will work /roll ?{Number of Dice|1}d6 >6f<3 +  ?{Number of Dice}

That's pretty clever, GiGs!
