Version 2006.1.1 - Released 19th July 2006

• Fixed history navigation problem causing index out of bounds
• Fixed possibility of rolling >1000 dice when multiple attacks per round setup
• Completely redesigned the dice interpreter in DICE.INI ... 3D8+1 defaults to 3(D8+0)+1 (by request)... you can now specify 5(d4+1).
• DICE.INI uses {curly braces} to delimite dice definitions and [square brackets] to delimit attack bonus sequences. You will need to change your DICE.INI and change (round brackets) to {curly braces}.
