This is very useful for someone like me who just wants a way to do it, without having to understand! If you don't mind the volatility of the OFFSET() function, you can make this dynamic using a named range. For eg I made a range called DiceSize to hold the number of sides and put the first "1" probability in B23. I used a dynamic named range called KingSum which refers to =OFFSET('Dice Rolls'!$A$22,-1*DiceSize,,DiceSize,1). I could then used the formula =SUM(OFFSET(KingSum,ROW(A1),COLUMN(A1)))/DiceSize in Cell C23, dragged all over a large area to give a table reliant on DiceSize.
