A simple textual roller of dice pools for a Deadlands Classic skill check. A Deadlands Classic skill check involves 'exploding' dice ('aces' in Deadlands terms) and the selection of only the single highest roll (or series of exploded rolls) from a given pool, with critical failures ('busts') on a majority of 1s.

--halfbust
switches bust mechanics to nonmajority 50% of dice in the pool rolling a 1.--verbose
enables pointlessly-detailed output of full roll series for aces
Type in the skill roll desired in the normal format of, eg, 3d8
To change the target number, use tn
followed by the new number. Whitespace before

if any.
