Ok I am a total nerd and ordered dice to go with each faction....which now leaves me with extra dice in each color. (Red, Green, Blue, Black) Which now leaves me with 4 extra sets of each color.

Anyone else want to be nerdy with me? LOL

It would be cool to have dice done up that have the faction symbol for that faction as the 1.

Brown dice in general are tricky....usually they are of the marbelized variety and the dots are hard to read...or they have actual numbers engraved in them instead of the dots.

I do own a set of wooden brown dice that are awesome looking that may replace the black ones if they are the same size.

It would be neat to have faction specific dice. I would suggest the symbol go on the 6 instead of the 1 so that you actually get happy when you see the symbol roll up, lol. Gale Force 9 used to do faction dice in special tins for Hordes and Warmachine. Those were really nice sets.

You can always print labels and stick them onto dice or blank cubes. That way you can have faction symbols and stuff without having to order 100+ custom dice (and possibly violating Truth's copyright in the process). I've done that in the past, and it looks pretty decent as long as you print on the best setting.

If you decided to use wooden cubes, you could paint them brown before appyling the stickers. You can get those at any craft store.

I only had my cell on me, so the pic is super blurry. It will give you an idea, though.

If you're worried about the stickers falling off, a little clear coat spray will seal them nicely.

Custom-printed dice generally only allow one color per side, and I prefer the option to go all out. I do it for homebrew dice games typically, when I need certain words or images on the dice.

For a game like SW where standard numbers are used, I just go with the regular ones. I only made this one to defend the honor of the label company :D

I second this motion. For faction dice keep the symbol on the 6.

So I can get excited and seethe cool faction symbol.

Agreed on the faction symbol replacing the 6. I don't want to see my faction symbol and think "damn it" because of a miss.

Have the dice been sent or has there been some life stuff getting in the way and it's just been postponed?

Trust me, it happens with me all the time. I'm just curious to know:p

Something is not right here. If these were sent on the 17th as suggested by Onacara, then they all should have arrived by now.

Onacara, you have had some difficulty in the past with your mailings. Why do these problems continue?

Um, no. Actually shipping is FASTER because all the carriers are working overtime due to the expectation of more parcels.

Ona, are you going to tell us that the Postal Police took these as evidence of some mysterious crime, or that they were destroyed in transit, returned and not paid for by the Government? Or is this more along the lines of the Games Exchange Club?

LOL

Ya know I love ya man!

I think we should just blame it on bobfunlandfrank. ;)

I bet the CIA took them. Or better yet, Barack Obama made a personal visit to the Onacara household to confiscate his allegedly anthrax-bearing packages? That's probably it. Speak of a coincidence!

Here's what I sent to Onacara. If he ignores this, I dunno what....



Hi.

Though I have never been in direct connection with any of your flubbed projects, I am fully aware of your lack of consideration for those involved. Let's see, there were the 2008 NHSD trophies that were never sent, the Gamers' Exchange club games that were never sent, and now this. (Was it the postal police again this time?) I bet plenty of us would forgive your lazy attitude if you just GREW UP and gave us a heads up on what's going on. But no, you have refused to address countless direct questions as to what the status is, and left dozens of us clueless. And don't even try to pull the "I've had family matters going on...another cyst...etc." since you have been posting on HSers ALMOST EVERY SINGLE DAY in the past few weeks, yet you have no desire to follow up on another one of your empty promises. I'm curious why you begin these mailing projects when you clearly know (for some reason) that you will not complete them. Whatever your motives are, I have lost nearly all my respect for you, and I hope you understand why.

Peace out,
Mr M
