We generalize some previous results on random polynomials in several complex variables. A standard setting is to consider random polynomials $H_n(z):=\sum_{j=1}^{m_n} a_jp_j(z)$ that are linear combinations of basis polynomials $\{p_j\}$ with i.i.d. complex random variable coefficients $\{a_j\}$ where $\{p_j\}$ form an orthonormal basis for a Bernstein-Markov measure on a compact set $K\subset \C^d$. Here $m_n$ is the dimension of $\mathcal P_n$, the holomorphic polynomials of degree at most $n$ in $\C^d$. We consider more general bases $\{p_j\}$, which include, e.g., higher-dimensional generalizations of Fekete polynomials. Moreover we allow $H_n(z):=\sum_{j=1}^{m_n} a_{nj}p_{nj}(z)$; i.e., we have an {\it array} of basis polynomials $\{p_{nj}\}$ and random coefficients $\{a_{nj}\}$. This always occurs in a weighted situation. We prove results on convergence in probability and on almost sure convergence of $\frac{1}{n}\log |H_n|$ in $L^1_{loc}(\C^d)$ to the (weighted) extremal plurisubharmonic function for $K$. We aim for weakest possible sufficient conditions on the random coefficients to guarantee convergence.
