Zyth23 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 I didn't copy pasted the non-opaque dice, cause they don't interess me. But I was abit sad to not see Red/Black and Black/Red dice on the list they emailed me =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mattias Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yeah, I like the opaque look too... I think the other crucial thing is keeping costs minimal. More people will get involved if the dice picked are budget-friendly. Translucent etc would no doubt get pricier too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyth23 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 I got another mail from Chessex few minutes ago. "At a quantity of 1000 total dice, the price would be $.39 USD per die plus shipping. Shipping to Switzerland would be $60.00 USD via International Airmail. This will make the total for your project $450.00 USD with shipping included. Production time for your project will take about 8 to 10 weeks to complete." Really Good news. This means that the dice will cost, for those who are interessed, 0.45$ each plus the shipping to their place. I'll be able to order the dice this week, or maybe the next week.

Marshal_Roujakis Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 @Zyth23: have they given you a sample of the dice or just pictures? If they have, do trial rolls with a sample of them, there have been dice problems lately and if you keep coming up with the same numbers (9/10 times) then that means the dice aren't balanced. (Dice needs to be balanced to be fair, you don't want to have a dice that just keeps on rolling 6's... that wouldn't be fair :p) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Icculus Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I have a set of six cross dice. the crosses are on the ones though, and I have to be honest, they have not been treating me well, I often trade them in middle battle for my cube of the smaller sized dice. I will have to post a pic here of the dice I'm working with. I am really considering ordering a set of 32 dice with the cross from Chessex, seeing as how you can make custom orders.

But anyway, the first goal of those dice is to have AWESOME dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acebaur Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Here's a question, do we want to order them with the skull or with a cross more like his one? http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y42/sleepybear/BT-dice.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mattias Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 That's an equally nice cross. I wouldn't mind either way. One is classic maltese templar ish and the other is more gothic templar I suppose. Both excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Icculus Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 I like the black and gold skull-cross the best. The dice I have now are more of an Iron Cross than a Maltese Cross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyth23 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 I will order some with the Cross and the Skull. Here you can see the Ivory/Black, Red/White, Black/Gold dice made by Chessex few days ago, for my futur order: The Dices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mattias Posted March 24, 2014 Share Posted March 24, 2014 They all look good and I definitely want a good selection. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyth23 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Share Posted March 24, 2014 So got answer from Chessex about the Dice Roll: "The engraving process removes very little material from the custom face. The dice probabilities are not significantly worse than without engraving." Better and Better each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
