Those Colored German Dice

[BStewart80]

My order is now over 2 months old, so I sent him a message. We’ll see what happens now.

I can tell you from experience, I would be shocked if you get a response. But, I can also tell you based on the timing you described, you should receice them within a week or so. That's what happened with me. All that said, I hope he responds and I hope you get them in a day or two. I know how it feels to wait for them.

As I stated before, last time I ordered from him I waited a couple months and nothing. I messaged him and he replied and said he’d ship again. Then, I received them about a month later. I think he never shipped them until my message.

Congrats. They look nice as usual. Wish the mail situation wasn't so bad. Maybe we should order them wholesale and sell them from the U.S. for quicker delivery. Not sure if the vendor would really go for that sort of thing. Couldn't hurt to ask, I suppose.

They have enriched my level of play big time; especially with Lemmeron's card/game play system. Not advertising, just sayin'.

Alas they arrived. Dated October 12, 2020.

If you use them as actual party dice, you take your own risks...

Luckily I don’t drink. My Alchemist Hero will find them very helpful, though.

Greetings good people and other nerds

I have been wondering about those german dice and i think they are unnecessary too many types of dices.
I would rather order myself custom combat dices for my Heroquest game to add some spice to the game
Normally we only use combat dice which is = s, s, s, w, w, b
(if s = skull, w = white shield, b = black shield)

But would it improve the gameplay if we introduced new but not to many types of dices to the game?

New dices!?!
Stronger opponents dice/evil dice = s, s, s, s, b, b
Enhanced dice/stronger weapon = s, s, s, s, w, w
Defence dice or (defence dice+monster attack dice) = s, s, s, w, w, w

Even though the improved dice for the heroes has no black shield, then there is still chance to miss
For the encanced dice you still need to get skull when attacking

Defence dice
changing one normal dice into defence dice for shield or for each armor hero has (the latter option maybe overpowered...)
I have thought of two ways of using the defence dice
One is only using it for hero when he is throwing defence (not using it when attacking)
or
using both when in defending and when the monster is attacking hero who has defence dice (changing same number of normal attacking dice into defence attacking dice for the monster)
I feel it would only be available option if I decide to make the defence dice less effective, maybe = s, s, w, w, w, b

Another option
To spice things up, I also thought of using 1 automatic hit/defence for for specific weapons/armors and mayby even for specifics classes

Maybe even mixing these two (new dices !?!, another option) together somehow or not at all.

Please fire away what you think of my ideas

I picked up a full set of all colours from eBay for £40.
I love them, perfect for homebrew when wanting to alter stats of monsters
The yellow and orange ones for instance have double skulls, but less of them onxtye dice, so I use them for spears, maces and flails.
Less likely to hit due to difficulty in using, but if you do, high damage output!

I just want to point out sometimes Hero dice require a black shield to be on there for traps and such.
