I remember rolling my (RPG) dice collection trying to get the highest number on each to see how long it would take. Roll whole collection, remove maximums, repeat. I also did a variation where I'd roll everything, and take the lower dice and add them to the higher dice. Anything that maxed out was out of the reroll. Repeat. It was great as a kid. You could watch movies or TV while doing it too.
Where did it all go wrong, Casey? I can’t pinpoint it, but it was already too late when they remade 3:10 to Yuma and took a movie that was mostly two men talking about morality in a hotel room and put in a Gatling gun.
This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
She needs more d24s. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd really, don't we all have more dice than we need?
ReplyDeleteI'm not even sure where she got it, Jen Brinkman!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter thinks all my dice ARE her dice. I'm starting to find things all over the house...
ReplyDeleteShe learned it from watching you, Dad!
ReplyDeleteExcellent use of her time. Always important to perform a regular dice inventory.

ReplyDeleteNerd.
ReplyDeletelooks like you need to get her a d30. Also, she almost has enough six sided dice to play warhammer 40k.
ReplyDeleteNot quite though.
ReplyDeleteWhat are the "non-#" dice?
ReplyDeleteEmoticon dice, weather dice, playing card dice, animal dice...anything with pictures instead of numbers.
ReplyDeleteGotcha. Wondered for a min if you'd given her a bunch of blank dice. That'd be mean...and funny.
