# Success Counting

\`5d10>7\` - Roll five d10s, count successes (dice that show 7, 8, 9, or 10)

_Example:_ Roll: \[8, 3, 10, 7, 4\] → \[1, 0, 1, 1, 0\] → Final Result: 3 successes

\`5d10\<4\` - Roll five d10s, count successes (dice that show 1, 2, 3, or 4)

_Example:_ Roll: \[8, 3, 10, 7, 4\] → \[0, 1, 0, 0, 1\] → Final Result: 2 successes

\`5d10=6\` - Roll five d10s, count successes (dice that show exactly 6)

_Example:_ Roll: \[6, 3, 6, 7, 4\] → \[1, 0, 1, 0, 0\] → Final Result: 2 successes

\`5d10f\<4\` - Roll five d10s, count failures (dice that show 1, 2, 3, or 4)

_Example:_ Roll: \[8, 3, 10, 7, 4\] → \[0, -1, 0, 0, -1\]→ Final Result:  -2\` (Note: Success counting isn't used here, only failures. The final value is \`- (number of failures)\` if only \`f\` is used.)

\`5d10>7f\<3\` - Roll five d10s, count successes (dice that show 5,6,7,8,9 or 10) and subtract failures (dice that show 1,2,3)

_Example:_ Roll: \[8, 6, 2, 10, 5\] → \[1, 0, -1, 1, 0\] → Final Result: 1

### Critical Success and Failure

**Heads-up:** Critical successes are calculated correctly, but the current Roll Announcement UI doesn’t yet highlight them.

\`3d20cs>18\` - Roll three d20s, marking 18, 19, and 20 as critical successes

_Example:_ Roll: \[19, 5, 12\] → The 19 meets the \`cs>18\` condition and is marked. → Final Dice: \[19 (CS), 5, 12\], Total: \`19 + 5 + 12 = 36\`

\`3d20cf\<3\` - Roll three d20s, marking 1, 2, or 3 as critical failures

_Example:_ Roll: \`\[2, 15, 8\]\` → The 2 meets the \`cf\<3\` condition and is marked. → Final Dice: \`\[2 (CF), 15, 8\]\`, Total: \`2 + 15 + 8 = 25\`
