| #2ADHadhMar 26, 2010 5:09:11 | I hope the bag has latest errata applied. |
| #3mkillMar 26, 2010 8:53:33 | Err... if you don't like the blue dice buy any of the many other dice sets available from a dozen other companies? I heard they are compatible. |
| #4Darkwolf_BloodsbaneMar 26, 2010 9:40:26 | Err... if you don't like the blue dice buy any of the many other dice sets available from a dozen other companies? I heard they are compatible. They were. I heard that Wizards was updating to non-eucledian solids with these new dice. |
| #5fullerenaMar 26, 2010 9:53:45 | They were. I heard that Wizards was updating to non-eucledian solids with these new dice. If Gamma World sells well, they'll be releasing Pokethulhu 4e. Each copy comes with a complete set of polyhedral dice including the eldritch Shining Dodecahedron, and 32 collectible 'thulhus! That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange aeons even death may die! To bring down our masters on an icy night, And to claim the power when the stars are right... Derleth! Bloch! Team Eibon! Stand fast to resist our rage... Or flee to the safety of a new dark age! (sadly, this will never happen) |
| #6DuskweaverMar 27, 2010 1:51:55 | They were. I heard that Wizards was updating to non-eucledian solids with these new dice. But that's not a deliberate design feature so much as an inevitable consequence of importing them from the Far Realm. Those aboleths can make stuff even cheaper than the Chinese, if you don't mind a few minor reality-warping effects or the risk of accidentally getting turned into a foulspawn. |
| #7calronmoonflowerMar 27, 2010 2:23:08 | Will they introduce an d∞ and bring back the dπ? |
| #8CaericMar 27, 2010 20:40:06 | Will they introduce an d∞ and bring back the dπ? No one knows about the first one but those too maddened to utter coherent syllables, but I'd say the dπ is in full-time retirement. People just couldn't figure out exactly how many sides there were. It was getting frustrating. |
| #9mercaiusMar 27, 2010 21:53:04 | Yeah, dπ was always a pain in my games. If you tried to figure out your roll to within scientific accuracy, it really bogged down gameplay. And if you didn't, you always had those rules lawyers who wanted to round up when it was their rolls for hp or damage, but always yelled at me if I didn't round down when making monster attacks or rolling for traps. Way too many fights at my table started with the roll of a dπ. |
| #10DungeoneeringMar 27, 2010 22:37:15 | Will they introduce an d∞ and bring back the dπ? Irrational dice! |
| #11DuskweaverMar 28, 2010 3:16:33 | And if you didn't, you always had those rules lawyers who wanted to round up when it was their rolls for hp or damage, but always yelled at me if I didn't round down when making monster attacks or rolling for traps. But you always round down in 4th edition, so there should no longer be a problem. In 4th edition, π really does = 3. Which also explains why fireballs and gelatinous cubes are now the same shape. I'm still holding out hope for the di, though I've been told I should "get real" and stop imagining things... |
| #12Darkwolf_BloodsbaneMar 29, 2010 9:56:00 | And if you didn't, you always had those rules lawyers who wanted to round up when it was their rolls for hp or damage, but always yelled at me if I didn't round down when making monster attacks or rolling for traps. I'm a math minor and even I found that pun to be terrible. ![]() |
| #13Mad_JackMar 29, 2010 17:47:02 | I think I'm going to start a website to sell my hand-crafted d0's... |
| #14DungeoneeringMar 30, 2010 11:07:23 | My d1's roll terribly... |
| #15Tharag_BoccMar 30, 2010 11:35:27 | My d1's roll terribly... Too bad for you. Mine roll great. I get the max result every time. |
| #16MarandahirMar 30, 2010 14:33:10 | I'm a big fan of de. My rolls are always transcendental, and in Dragons & Dungeons, they're always natural. |
| #17AcryliumMar 30, 2010 15:03:26 | I love my de too, it's just great. But I'm wondering if I ever find my dln8 and my dln12 again. I think I lost them anywhere... |
| #18mackinatorMar 30, 2010 19:23:37 | Maybe I'll get to use my d4i again soon! After all, isn't D&D a game of the imagination? |
| #19MarandahirMar 31, 2010 1:06:12 | This topic makes me happy. |
| #20AcryliumMar 31, 2010 5:51:02 | Wait! Frist you have to roll at least a dln8 to determin how happy you realy are. Then proceed with happiness. |
| #21ranadielMar 31, 2010 9:26:08 | Bah, my dtan(pi/2) is better than all other puny dice. |
| #22Darkwolf_BloodsbaneMar 31, 2010 10:54:20 | *looks over topic* ... What have I done? |
| #23mackinatorMar 31, 2010 18:22:27 | *looks over topic* You've spurred a whole new line of dice! Or perhaps a line segment. |
| #24Vorpal_BunnyMar 31, 2010 22:07:21 | And if you didn't, you always had those rules lawyers who wanted to round up when it was their rolls for hp or damage, but always yelled at me if I didn't round down when making monster attacks or rolling for traps. i second this, but i do give props for a quick wit. |
| #25MarandahirMar 31, 2010 23:49:58 | It's official guys: WotC has announced today their new line of dice, including the famed di. Check it out! And talk about it here. |
| #26mackinatorApr 01, 2010 6:08:51 | It's official guys: Somehow, I'm unsurprised. Marandahir, you know what I'm talking about. |
| #27borogamerApr 01, 2010 10:17:40 | I found the most bizarre die in my collection the other day. |
| #28Darkwolf_BloodsbaneApr 01, 2010 15:53:30 |
It must just be me. I use this more than most of my dice. Except the d20 and d10 (my mot often playd character is a 3e Halberdier.) |
| #29RPJesusApr 01, 2010 16:46:04 | It's official guys: So what does it say about me that I saw that coming and still clicked it because I hadn't listened to that in a while ? |
| #30ADHadhApr 02, 2010 4:58:19 | It's official guys: It means that you're never gonna give it up, never gonna let it down. |
