-The [[http://www.dragondice.com/dcm.php | Dice Browser]] page includes statistics for each individual die to assist in seeing how well the die will roll in your army. For each die, the page will show you the percentage chance of rolling a favorable result for each roll type, as well as the average value the die will produce and the standard deviation in the die's results for each roll type. If you are not used to these statistics, they can be overwhelming. So we will start by explaining what these values mean and how they're derived. Then we will go into detail for which dice produce results.+The [[http://www.dragondice.com/diceroller.php | Player Tools]] page includes statistics for each individual die to assist in seeing how well the die will roll in your army.

 === Standard Deviation === === Standard Deviation ===
 Standard deviation indicates the extent of deviation for a group as a whole. This effectively means you won't get the average value every time. Your results are going to deviate from the average by some margin. In our Wolf Rider example, you won't roll 3.25 every roll. You're going to roll 0 or 2 Melee results every time. Standard deviation indicates the extent of deviation for a group as a whole. This effectively means you won't get the average value every time.

 +The Standard Deviation represents the spread of the results, with 66% of all rolls lying within +-1 SD of the mean, 95% of all rolls lying within 2 SDs, and 99% of rolls lying within 3 SDs.

-1^2 = 1+sqrt(1) = 1
  
 This gives our Standard Deviation of 1 for Wolf Rider rolling Melee. This gives our Standard Deviation of 1 for Wolf Rider rolling Melee.
