If I could have found them anywhere from a US seller, or for less than $30 overseas, I probably would have just bought them, but this was a $5 solution.
Amateurs, let me know when you have a real challenge!
On a more serious note, for these I just used regular white dice with black pips. For a first go it worked, but a couple of issues. (1) the black pips show throw a bit and (2) you need to make the sticker just big enough to cover the pips but small enough to not roll over the edge. It took a couple tries to get the size right, and placement is important. A bit too much fiddling.
Now I could go one of two routes for dice. Plain 16mm dice, or these 19mm ones with a 1/2" square indent on each face.
25 dice are $15, but I think the 50 dice for $25 is better. You can mix colors in the order, and 50 dice gets 6 sets or 8 Saga dice.
Regardless of the dice used, I need to buy better labels. The one I used is a standard label, flat finish and not very durable. I'm going to check for a more resilient label, maybe a more satin finish photo label.
The fatigue markers came out good, but the piety marker needs some work. Jim, if you want Muslim fatigue markers let me know. https://plus.google.com/photos/...
Originally shared by Jonathan Tweet Tonight, my "Lethal Damage" 13th Age campaign draws to a close. Meanwhile, the guys are work have talked me into running a couple D&D sessions for them. That was the day 13th Age was announced, and they're happy to play 13th Age instead. That will be my "Great Center" campaign, based in the imperial capital of Axis, the center of the world. It's my opportunity to explore the setting from yet another perspective.
Life is short and unfair. I don’t even know what to say. Hours after the last picture I posted of Alice and the kids we came home from the movie to find her nearly dead in her kennel. She stayed at the vet for 36 hours, and after making some improvement on the first day, started to fade last night. I was with her when they put her to sleep this morning. We buried her collar and her stuffed elephant under our deck where she liked to crawl just out of reach. Alice had four owners in her short life. She survived being hit by a car and moving from Alabama to Minnesota. Then being moved around in foster care before she got to us. I hope she knew she was with for the long haul. She was a good pup. This is the last picture I took of her. We were visiting her yesterday at the vet, anticipating bringing her home today.
Pre-gen from Frank Mentzer's module, The Needle , 1987. I knew this was insulting and gross when I was 14. At the time I didn't know who Frank was, since I only played AD&D. I found this module again when I was going through a box of old stuff and was surprised he wrote it, because I thought it was a pretty shitty adventure.
