Software Limitations / TODO:It is recommended that you thoroughly evaluate the free web app before purchasing the full table data. Current limitations of the software (as of the date of this post) are:
- any fumble result must be entered by the GM rather than the software looking up the result
- and large creature critical must be entered by the GM rather than the software looking up the result
Software development is ongoing, to improve the functionality of the web app.
