+# Description: A modified form of the World of Darkness die roller to
+#              conform to ShadowRun rules-sets. Thanks to the ORPG team
+#              for the original die rollers.
+#              Thanks to tdb30_ for letting me think out loud with him.
+#         I take my hint from the HERO dieroller: It creates for wildly variant options
+#         Further, .vs and .open do not work together in any logical way. One method of
+#         chaining them results in a [Bad Dice Format] and the other results in a standard
+#         output from calling .open()
+
+#         vs is a classic 'comparison' method function, with one difference. It uses a
+#           c&p'ed .open(int) from die.py but makes sure that once the target has been exceeded
+#           then it stops rerolling. The overhead from additional boolean checking is probably
+#           greater than the gains from not over-rolling. The behaviour is in-line with
+#           Shadowrun Third Edition which recommends not rolling once you've exceeded the target
+#         open is an override of .open(int) in die.py. The reason is pretty simple. In die.py open
+#           refers to 'open-ended rolling' whereas in Shadowrun it refers to an 'Open Test' where
+#           the objective is to find the highest die total out of rolled dice. This is then generally
+#           used as the target in a 'Success Test' (for which .vs functions)
+
+# Modified by: Darloth
+# Mod Version: 1.1
+# Modified Desc:
+#       I've altered the vs call to make it report successes against every target number (tn)
+#       in a specified (default 3) range, with the original as median.
+#       This reduces rerolling if the TN was calculated incorrectly, and is also very useful
+#       when people are rolling against multiple TNs, which is the case with most area-effect spells.
+#       To aid in picking the specified TN out from the others, it will be in bold.
+#       vswide is a version which can be used with no arguments, or can be used to get a very wide range, by
+#       directly specifying the upper bound (Which is limited to 30)
