A single page static site MathHammer calculator. MathHammer is a method of measuring a units' effectiveness by using averages, for players of the Warhammer 40k tabletop game.

• Rerolling ones to hit and wound, with a to wound mod, yields less wounds than either option on its own...rather odd.
  • Is there a discrepancy in unsaved wounds when using a reroll hit/wound one and a wound/hit modifier?
• There's some weirdness when armour save isn't entered or is 7. So basically if a unit has no save.

• Updated average damage and shots on d6 to be more accurate, using 3.5.
• Armour saves with high AP weapons was functioning incorrectly.
• Issue with reroll ones to hit/wound paired with reroll wound/hit not working.

• Add validation on inputs
• Ability to input multiple weapons
• Bonus features, not priority
  • Options for things like Feel no pain? Cover?
  • AP modifying / mortal wound abilities like eldar bladestorm and sniper rifles
  • Quantum shielding
  • reroll/reroll ones armour saves
• Some weapons get multiple d6 damage or shots
• SEO
• Requested features
  • Allow users to see damage dealt from the attacking model, regardless of models removed. So 0.06 Unsaved Wounds, dealing 2 damage each, would result in 0.12 damage against multi-wound targets. Used for whole unit shooting. Need to add multi weapon support, for now shot values can be multiplied.
  • Compare different units and weapon configurations. Will require a lot of entry fields since can't use stats storage. Maybe have a "history" table? Highlight row with best results?
  • Damage per point is an important metric in tournament list building.
  • Show users a breakdown of damage & DPP against multiple toughness levels, and show them overall average Damage & DPP stats. For example. How good is a strength 4 weapon against toughness range 3 through 7?

• Generated site using jekyll
• Styled theme
• Set up input form
• Wrote JS, Functionality includes:
  • Flamers
  • large and small blasts
  • invul saves
  • full re-rolls and any modifiers, combinations of the two
• Updated columns to improve tab navigation
• Some test cases complete
  • D<W
  • D=W
  • D>W
  • D>>W
  • Invul < Save
  • Invul = Save
  • Invul > Save
  • Actual Save > 6
  • Actual Save < 6 Believe they are all functioning correctly
• Fixed issue with unsaved wounds. Didn't realise was returning successful saves instead of fails...
• Fixed issues with multiwound vs multidamage. Should be calculating models removed correctly now.
• Added Google Analytics
• Created new email account and added to footer for contact
• Reroll ones to hit and to wound functionality added
• 2d6 pick highest damage weapons added
• Huge re-factor of JavaScript. Makes way more sense now...and it fixed reroll one/all combo issue
