I do like a nice set of dice. Always have done, ever since I got my first set of polyhedrals so many years ago. I love the feel of them, the inherent possibilities (and probabilities) inherent within them. Somewhat sadly I like to have a set of dice for each of my RPGs- Nuke dice for "Mutant Epoch" and "Gamma World", black dice with red markings for "Traveller", red rocket-shaped dice for "Red Dwarf", and so on.<div><br /></div><div>So I've been looking for some D10s to go with Star Frontiers. The ones with the game almost seem too precious to use (they're certainly fairly fragile, somewhat crappy plastic that they are). I considered matching the original red and light blue but wanted something a bit more... well... Star Frontiersy if you see what I mean.</div><div><br /></div><div>Found some, in my friendly neighbourhood games shop, Orc's Nest, Central London. They'd just had a new shipment in, Workshop Q is the supplier I think. As you can see from the picture below, the colours match quite well, those particular shades of purple and dark blue must be common industry standard pigments, so I picked up a few of each. I'm rather pleased with them, just need a suitable bag now. Any more diceheads out there?<br /><div><br /></div><div><img src="/files/u21696/SF_Dice.jpg" alt="Star Frontiers Dice" title="Dice!" width="448" height="336" /></div></div><div><br /></div><div>(Also wanted to test the image linking facility on the Forum, seems to work)</div>
