The die roller we have been using has been shut down.

Any suggestion how to proceed with our game? New die roller? Use the MWIF internal die roller?

Yes, please. The German NAV3 to the 2-box. Thank you.

Coordinating with my Allies to agree on a roller. Hopefully solved soon.

I think https://dicelog.com/dice is the way to go as suggested on another thread. I did send a rest roll to you lads to test the formatting of a search roll. Let me know if this is the way you want to go.

This works for us, and I sent a test roll a short while ago.

Another crappy Allied search roll 10, Axis 3 - 7 points.
Was able to reolve it without asking as it was obvious. Saving 3 points would have only resulted in one D.
