Gaz1858 Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Hey all, I have a load of extra dice that I just dont need and wondered if any of you creative types had some ideas on what can be done with them?

Naryn Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Just regular dice or do they have symbols on certain faces? I made some neat terrain using the Betrayal at Calth dice as storage containers with the skulls facing outwards. You can hide pips with sandbags or misc bits like lasguns or power packs.

K0rtmer Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Apparenty there's some interesting physics to investigate with sufficiently many dice. (Sorry for not being more constructive than that.)

Fajita Fan Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I was going to use the small dice you get with all the box sets on my Harlequin Shadowseer by arranging them in an arc around him like they're floating as he casts spells. They were going to be painted like glowing balls of magic energy and the rest of my Harlequins were going to have a casino scheme with card suits. ...then I realized I don't have the skill or patience to paint a Harlequin troupe.

Khornate individual Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 A few years ago a friend of mine was buying cheap clocks from the dollar store. Took the clock apart and put different 40k pics in from old codexes, codices (whatever their called). He would use the large pics usually full page so they would cover the whole clock face and then glue his extra dice he didn't want or need onto it for the hour numbers. Turned out looking pretty cool. Another thing I've seen my friends do is use a dreadnaught size base and a miniature thats got a pointing finger or a large gun and make a turn counter with the dice glued around half of the base and the mini or gun attached by magnets so it can turn to the die number of what turn the game is in. If nothing else shooting 22 rifles are always fun at small targets 25 yds away Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359575-what-to-do-with-extra-dice/#findComment-5417870 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranulf the revenant Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Objektive Markers, I guess. How much so you have? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359575-what-to-do-with-extra-dice/#findComment-5417905 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exilyth Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Make a kill box: A transparent box with compartments with one or two dice in each compartment (depending on whether you need e.g. rolls of d6 or 2d6). Helps speed up rolling a lot of dice - just shake it violently and start counting.
