Toasterfree Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Just want a feeler of how many people would want custom dice.... and about how many. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266504-custom-dice/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
henrywalker Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 oh god yes. any you know what else? i want a D36 for the boon table (if only, sigh, ive tried and nowhere makes them) seriously though i definitely would go for it however i imagine that each god will want to be represented as well as undivided. over in the grey knights forum we considered a custom scatter dice but that never took off. might be worth trying. also a D3 (ie a D6 with duplicate sides) is often used in our codex and might be worth it.

henrywalker Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 well a scatter would be $6 a piece (unless more than 25 people want it in which case its $4.50) which i could see some people (not all) wanting. chessex might actually make a D3 in which case we may be able to buy it non custom (although it would not have a custom image) also for the boon table it might be nice to get a dice with the numerals 1-6 and another with 10,20,30,40,50,60 on it. again chessex do make these so perhaps we could add them to our order.

Toasterfree Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 before you start throwing ideas out there, i want to get an idea if people would want in on this. i would not start working on it till after the new year anyway Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266504-custom-dice/#findComment-3246117 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Are you planning on making dice, or designs for dice faces? Either way, I'm always interested in dice.

Toasterfree Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 Are you planning on making dice, or designs for dice faces? Either way, I'm always interested in dice. i dont have any idea as of yet, just trying to get feeler. doing 6 (potentially) different designs is going to be a huge task, and juggle as many different colors. so i just want to get a feel if this is something to do or not. if the number of people interested and the number of dice is "worth it" then i would work it for you. what defines "worth it" not certain yet. like i said, just a feeler. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266504-custom-dice/#findComment-3246129 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinners Red Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I would be interested. d6's d3 whatever pretty much. Dark/Midnight blue if i have a say in colors. Not the swirly kind either Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/266504-custom-dice/#findComment-3246139 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasterfree Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 Dark/Midnight blue if i have a say in colors. Not the swirly kind either the plan is to do all the gods/undivided. as long as they are of the same design color matters not. so if there is enough interest then you may get your choice.

Attomsk Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I want custom dice! The only thing I would really like is hard edged dice, like casino dice. I am not a fan of round corner dice.

I am not a fan of round corner dice. beggers cant be choosers. i havent found anyone that does custom casino dice, it would be round edged. (why were people in the GK section less picky, stupid chaos) ;) To be fair, when you go GK all you can go is GK. Chaos is like an all-you-can-eat buffet, so many choices. ;) Umm, I wouldn't mind customized dice. But my biggest concerns are 1.) Price. 2.) If there is some way I can pay cash. Which I doubt. But if showing interest can get me the answers to these questions with the possibility of being a "yes" to the second one, then interest I shall show. EDIT: Would it be safe to assume that for convenience's(and reality's) sake that the dice would only come in one design and that there wouldn't be like nine Legion dice or something else quite that insane?

wargame insomniac Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Personally I would love some Chaos themed ice, depending on price of course. I have previously looked for something for Iron Warriors (most of the metallic dice were too shiny and silvery than a dull iron colour) or for my WFB Chaos Undecided army (with dark bowns and blacks as main colours). My current W40K army is purple Slaaneshi CSM. To be honest though I would be happy with simple dice with Chaos Star as number 6. One with a good colour contrast between dice and pips so us old codgers can see them clearly. I could live with black dice with white pips if it had Chaos star on 6's.

Cheers James depending on how many people jump in on it, you would be looking around .40 or so per die. iron warriors gonna be kinda hard. so far i cant find a good color to reflect the light steel look and the yellow. hopefully they have something in a steel/black.

techsoldaten Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I'd definately be interested in some dice. :) I would be interested in custom dice and would prefer ones that: - have uniform, pointed corners - possess no divots carved into the surface that could affect probability There's actually been serious research that shows you roll more ones on dice with shaved corners. You would never find them in a place like Vegas and I never play with anything but. Also, fwiw, they would cost a lot less to be designed and manufactured if they are not carved.

GlauG Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I'd be interested, I am very sad that I missed out on several flavours of Dark Angel dice in that forum. Throwing out another vote for pointy corners if possible, I have been known to play with casino dice in tournaments.

Urauloth Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I should add as a caveat that I really hate when the symbol on a custom die is a replacement for the 6 instead of the 1, I'd only be interested in the latter.
