It's probably just a semantics thing, but wanted to make a suggestion. So, I went to attack a creature that was Fairy Fired, and the percentage showed 100%. Went to attack and scored a Critical Miss. Now I understand that rolling a1 does happen, but shouldn't the percentage show something like 99% or some such number since there is always that chance of missing. Just one of those things, that make you go "Hmmm..."

You're both right xD Why did I forget about advantage?
