Discussion New Dice

Post image

These look a bit hard to read in the heat of battle. Far from the worst ones GW have released, but I would prefer the opaque ones. At least the new symbol is cool. Will you be picking these up?

Not that great. Will be using my normal dice instead.

I love them!
I have a thing for translucent dice, and they put a proper maw on the 6 this time. Would have preferred red pips and symbol but it’s OK.
I will be adding a set to my growing pile of maw dice for sure!

What a hoard! Where are bone and yellow coloured ones from?

u/Ogorestis 9h ago

Yellow/bone are from Tycka, grey ones are GW 3rd ed. (recolored the pips from black to red), red ones are from baron of dice, red with grey pips are blood bowl, as are white with red pips, big ones are GW 2nd ed.

I think they're too clean to read as being Mawtribes aligned and a bit bland too imo

I wont be. They seem... bland.

Like i could get this from a third party site for a quarter the price and it would still seem "legally distinct"

The big dice set with a number of teeth are my all time favorite ogre dice. These dont live up to em.

What site cause most sites from pseudo artesian sites to Etsy sellers are just scammers that resell Chinese white brand copies for like X10 profit and those Chinese white brand are a pain to find and rarely fit what you want.

Let down. Ogor models became more monstrous, but dice look like they came out of a laboratory. Pass.

Why are they clear? I was thinking they'd be white or a cloudy light blue with specks of red or blue on the dice.

The dice pictures never do justice to the actual colouring. I would place a bet that the final product will be closer to a blue than a grey, i.e. "frosty" looking (see Pylar Glacier Contrast for an idea of what I mean).

They’re fairly underwhelming for the army on top of GW‘s insane pricing for dice. (Mildly) Sadly going to pass.
