Assuming I wrote the spreadsheet expressions correctly:
Defender
4 6 8 10
12
4 37.50% 25.00% 18.75% 15.00% 12.50%
6 58.33% 41.67% 31.25% 25.00% 20.83%
8 68.75% 56.25% 43.75% 35.00% 29.17%
10 75.00% 65.00% 55.00% 45.00% 37.50%
12 79.17% 70.83% 62.50% 54.17% 45.83%
The probability of the attacker's die (down the column) beating the
defender's die (across the row)--
so if A is a 6 and D is a 10, we see that A has a 25% chance of beating
D.
If A has a Quality and Firepower roll, each d6, and needs to beat D's
d10,
then the odds are:
.25 * .25 = 6.25% both beat
.75 * .75 = 56.25% neither beat
1 - (sum of results above) = 37.5% one beats
