Question

I want to use the library in my program and I will have classes with different distributions and I want to generate a number at different times i

As drescherjm pointed out, dice is a local variable within he ctor. You need to make it accessible outside the scope of the ctor.I have tried to rework your program here. I think what you want is a random number generator that generates integer values from 0 to MR ? If that is the case, you can use the reworked program below:

 #include 
 #include 
 #include 
    class enemy {
    private:
        std::random_device rd;
        int max_roll;
        typedef std::mt19937 MyRng;
        MyRng rng;
       std::uniform_int_distribution dice;
    public:
       enemy(int MR) : max_roll(MR), rng(rd()), dice(std::uniform_int_distribution<>(1, MR)){
        rng.seed(::time(NULL));
        }

        int roll() {
            return dice(rng);
        }
    };

    int main()
    {
      enemy en(6);
      std::cout << "Roll dice produced : " << en.roll() << std::endl;
      return 0;
    }

The program is self-explanatory. Please let me know if it is not and I can take you through it.
