I'm new on this group and haven't looked at FUDGE close enough
to comment to how to handle tools and other objects. However,
I can comment on the use of dice.
I suggest using the difference between 2d6. Use dice of different
colors to preserve the sign (the results are identical to 2d6-7):
diff: -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5
1/36 1 2 3 4 5 6 5 4 3 2 1
% 2.8 5.6 8.3 11.1 13.9 16.7 13.9 11.1 8.3 5.6 2.8
For a slightly more compact curve, count 6 as 1 (i.e. dice
come up 6 and 4, the 6 is replaced by a 1 and the result is
-3):
diff: -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4
1/36 2 3 4 5 8 5 4 3 2
% 5.6 8.3 11.1 13.9 22.2 13.0 11.1 8.3 5.6
