Dice notation on both dice may be interpreted as either 0 or 100, depending on the game rules. The "d1000" (using three 10-sided dice) is occasionally also seen, although it is more common in wargames than role-playing games. A number of notational strategies exist for discarding only certain types of results. Some games extend the standard notation to A"d"X"(k"Y")+"B where, in addition to the above, Y is the number of dice kept (k) from the roll. Whether the dice omitted are the highest, lowest, or the player's choice depends on the game in question. 7th Sea and Legend of the Five Rings
