Conan 2d20 and other 2d20 systems use combat dice to determine damage and weapon effects. We can, of course, simple roll a d6 and note the results but we have a way to make it a little more automated if we desire. This is accomplished via the Roll20 roll table.
The process is pretty simple, and although it is not a perfect solution, it is easy to do and can be done completely with the free version of Roll20.
Step 1: Making the Table
On the top right of Roll20 you will find the Collection Icon. Clicking on it will bring up the tab that gives us control over a lot of the automated processes; macros, decks and rollable tables. Near the bottom you will find Rollable tables. The first thing we need to do is to create a new Rollable table.Step 2: Naming the table and adding the items
Once we have the table created, clicking on the table name that appeared when we added the new table. This will open up the new table dialog. From here rename the table to "CD" and begin adding each of the following Items: "1","2","0","0","1 + Effect","1 + Effect".Once you have completed adding your items into the table, it should look like this. When you are happy with it. Hit "Save Changes"
Step 3: Testing the roll
Switch back to the chat dialog box and type the following roll command into chat "/roll 3t[CD]", you should get a result similar to this image. This will show you the total damage that was rolled, but you will have to manually add in any extra damage you get from effects like Vicious(Conan),Sharp(JCoM), etc.And that is all there is to setting up a roll20 rollable table to handle your Combat Dice in roll20.
