Common 2d6 questions
Can I use this for D&D or Catan?
Yes — 2d6 is the core roll for Catan and works for any tabletop game that needs two standard dice. For other dice types (d4, d20), use a dedicated tabletop roller.
Is the randomness fair?
This page uses Math.random(), which is fine for casual play but not cryptographically secure. Rollit's real-money tables use a verifiable provably-fair seed for every roll — see dice betting for details.
