Online Dice3d6 · 3 separate 6-sided dice
Three D6s give a familiar 3–18 range with most of the probability near the middle. It is a useful way to see how adding independent dice smooths a distribution, and a convenient tray for any rule that specifies 3d6.
The example adds 6, 2, and 3 to make 11. Totals 10 and 11 are tied for the most ordered outcomes. You can reach either with different arrangements, which is why looking at one lucky-looking triple tells only a small part of the story.

| Total | Ordered sets | Chance, rounded |

| 3 | 1 | 0.46% |
| 10 / 11 | 27 each | 12.5% each |
| 18 | 1 | 0.46% |
Standard independent-dice model: 216 ordered outcomes. Percentages are rounded.
This is an exact dice distribution with integer totals, rather than a continuous normal curve. The endpoints remain possible. Use the probabilities to understand the shape, not to demand that a short session match it perfectly.
