Hello peeps
The last chap I was playing had an awesome set of what i would refer to as 'Casino Dice' - all perfectly square, see through plastic, with dots printed on rather than indented. We were chatting and he said he saw some study or other where, in a mechanical contraption, over 1000 rolls, indented dice would be more likely to fall 6 side down - ie one up - especially normal rounded corner dice.
I have some ex-casion dice a relative brought back from Vegas for me and rate these as my most impartial dice. My worst dice are a batch of Flames of War Afrika Korps dice - the amount of times I see swastika (ie ones) is unreal.
I also have a Chaos Dice - with an 8 pointed star for 1. I use it for all key roles, and it is guaranteed to fail saves for my lord or make the game go onto turn 6-7 - at the worst posible moment.
Questions:
1. What are the ebst dice in the world ever?
2. Anybody got a good source of totally square, printed dot dice (pardon my lack of nomenclature)?
3. Anybody got a good source of custom dice with army icons etc?
