Dice of Decision?

[John DiFool the 2nd]

I have Totaler Krieg!, and they have a nifty (tho

dice-roll intensive) system for randomly generating

a set of varying conditions for WWII. I was

wondering how (and if) we could adapt something like

that to SC2. Those conversant with the scripting

process (I am still learning tho being an amateur

coder helps) and TK! can feel free to add their

input.
