Don't worry, I won't ask you to give examples in French, though we are
more and more Frenchies on the list... ;)

Do you mean that for each situation you would have to check a specific
chart to see what happens or that you may adapt the rules following the
context (just keeping the "1-2 : death, 3-4 : nothing, 5-6 : success"
rule)?
By the way I like this. :)
