What it does!
Bigby's Helping Hand is designed to ease the load on the DM
during battles in the AD&D game system. It does this by
tracking the die rolls of monsters for attacks and damages
while still allowing the players to roll their own.
It also tracks initiative roll and this is used along with
weapon speed to select the next attack. Curently there is
an option to include a Dexterity bonus to the initiative
(As per the reaxtion adjustment).
eg: Player initiative = 4, monsters = 6
Player one has one attack, Weapon speed is 5, goes on 9<br>
Player two has two attacks, weapon speed is 4, goes on 8 & 12<br>
Monster one has three attacks with claws, speed 0, all on 6<br>
Monster two has one attack, weapon speed 4, goes on 10<br>
Monster one gets the first three attacks.
Player two gets an attack.
Player one gets an attack.
Monster two gets an attack.
Player two gets an attack.
