I have a spreadsheet program which rolls twenty-sided dice. Sheet 1 is Rolls and Sheet 2 is Values.

I want to roll a d20, but if it comes up 2-7, fudge it and assume I got 8 instead.

Rolls!A2‘s function is =RANDBETWEEN(1,20) which returns a random number between 1 and 20 to represent the d20 roll. Values!7E is function which calculates a (non-random) number (currently 13).

Currently, Rolls!C7‘s function attempts to calculate my result with =Values!E7+Rolls!A2. But I would like to update Rolls!C7 to reflect the fudging. If Rolls!A2 returns numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7, Rolls!C7 would instead be calculated as if it rolled an 8.

    Replace Rolls!A2 in your formula with this: IF(AND(Rolls!A2<8, Rolls!A2>1),8,Rolls!A2) this way it will always be at least 8 unless a 1 is rolled.
