Non-cubic dice in Ogre?  Die Die Die, it's always six sides to the die.

Yeah, how about this instead?

Take the number of threads in a movement block, divide by three and round up.

So Mark V: seven dice.
Mark III: five dice.
Mark I: 1 die.

Roll that many dice and add the remaining tread units and if you reach the
full amount needed you get that final move.

So a Mark V with 42 tread units needs to roll 18 or higher on seven dice
to move the third hex.
