One of the weird things about this game is its use of d3, d5, d7, d14, d16, d24 and d30 type dice. Personally, I currently own some d24s and a d30. The d24 I got for a game that used a lot of 4d6 rolls that I thought was too tame. I never ended up running that game, but I've still got the dice.
I know quite a few gamers. Lots of these people treat dice like magical totems. Many of them collect dice. But the only folks I know that I suspect own everyone one of these dice are Kathleen and Josh. And I'm pretty sure they didn't have a d24 until I gave one of my spares at a con.
So here's today's survey for anyone caring to weigh in:
- Of the set [d3, d5, d7, d14, d16, d24, d30] how many of these dice do you own?
- If you own any of them, which ones do you have?
- If you wanted to get some or all of them, where is the first place you would look?
- Does the need for these funky dice change your opinion about trying the DCC rpg?
My own answers are:
- Two
- Some d24s and a d30. (The d24s I got for a game that used a lot of 4d6 rolls that I thought was too tame. I never ended up running that game, but I've still got the dice.)
- I'd ask my local FLGS if they could get them in. If that wasn't feasible I'd got to either Gamestation or G-Squared.
- I am not discouraged. Maybe some of that old "what the crap is this?" magic can be regained this way. I dunno.

1. 2
ReplyDelete2. A d7 and a d30
3. Direct from Goodman Games. As I understand it, they will be selling the dice by the time the book is released
4. I like it. Given a choice between needing to buy more dice (mmmmm.... more dice) and having to buy a shedload of expensive plastic minis to be able to play the game, I'll take the dice every time.
Also, it's not difficult to convert dice - I've just posted a converter for all those dice to a d20 on my blog, and people are bound to come up with more methods.
I think of it like FUDGE dice (sets of d6s where the numbers are replaced with + and - symbols) and all the rest. It's a part of the game experience, nothing more. If people want to play the game, they'll get the dice. Maybe Goodman will offer the system and a set of dice as a bundled discount price. I dunno. Hope so.
1. d3- more then 3, d30- have two
ReplyDelete2. I have one or two funky little weird shaped d3 and a number of six sided dice labeled 1 to 3 twice. I think the d30's are old gamescience d30's.
(if you want to get picky every d6 can be tasked to d3 and every d10 can be tasked to d5)
3. online vendors.
4. The funky dice add to the appeal for me, the funky dice are part of the appeal to old day D&D back in the olden days.
People turned off by the funky dice are darned curious to me given the average RPG fan tendencies to dice fetishism.
Not having enough funky dice on hand is meaningless to me I played many hundreds of hours of D&D with one d20 labeled 0-9, a d8, a d12 and a d4 along with a number of dice "borrowed" from a Yahtzee set. with group from 2 to 10 in size.
I must have played for about 10 years before most regular players had a full set of dice.
1. None
ReplyDelete3. dunno, I'd Google it I guess
4. Somewhat annoyed; they're easy enough to simulate with regular dice, so I wouldn't buy them even if I intended to play DCC, but I really don't see what they add. They're funky for the sake of being funky, not because play goes any differently rolling a d7 instead of a d8-1.
1. One.
ReplyDelete2. The d30, which I strongly recommend to all!
3. I don't know -- the interweb somewhere. I have been thinking off and on about getting some, even though I have no direct interest in DCC. It seems some fun random tables could be created. . .
4. No effect either way -- not much interest to begin with.
1. None
ReplyDelete2. None.
3. I'd order them from one of several online vendors I normally use for such things.
4. They haven't affected my opinion one way or the other, since having to buy funny dice to play an RPG is something I've been doing for more than 30 years.

ReplyDelete2. All except the d7. My Zocchi set didn't some with one.

4. It's just another point of friction keeping me from wanting to play this. Me getting the dice is a small issue (although I really do dislike GS dice in general). Getting the rest of my group to invest in expensive dice they wont use in another game - damn near impossible.
Don't own the dice. Would pick them up at GenCon if I were going to get some. Absolutely hate the idea of them being in the game. Just feels way too "look at us, using nonstandard dice!"

ReplyDelete2. The venerable d30 of course!

3. Amazon the next time I order some books and I'm pretty sure Gamestation does the fulfillment for those.
4. I love cool new dice, so yeah, I think it's a pretty neat idea. At least it doesn't go the Full Monty as FFG's version of WHFRPG has done where every dice required for the game is a non-standard RPG dice.

4. Yes.
I like funny-sided dice, but I'm not a fetishist. I don't buy them just because they're there. I can appreciate a game publisher trying to reinvent the wheel, but this just seems to be a marketing tool to me.
It's odd how the game speaks to persons already familiar with RPGs, and then wants to disassociate one from them with different dice. If it's a real need for creatuing specific percentages, make a portable digital roller that you can set for different sided dice.
Or create an app for that. :)

ReplyDelete2. (d3, d14, d16, d24, d30)
I machined two d14 some years ago, then when I had access to a prototyper/fabber I made masters for the others, and cast them myself. [I had a homebrew gamer that required a ready multiple of 2 increase and d14 felt better than d12+1. Before I machined the dice, I built electronic dice, but it just wasn't the same.]
The d3 was a gift for detecting that it was a d3 instead of a d6 that consistently rolled really low (the tournament umpire checked for whether the dice were loaded, but didn't check the faces).
3. Given the costs of overseas shipping, especially by UPS, I'd hope the Australian distributor would bring some in, especially if they bring the game in.
4. Nope. The DCC RPG is gimmicky (my particular bane is the 0 level to 1 level). But the dice do give smooth curves which are very easy to use in play provided that you have the dice and don't have to improvise.
It's no more problem than using the existing "weird" dice (which used to be only available from mathematics supply stores back before role-playing took off).
If you don't have the dice it's a pain. Goodman really needs to think in terms of producing a boxed game that includes a set of dice as standard. Separating dice and game is a recipe for disaster.
I also have a set of Roman Tali dice for Fulminata. While you can simulate these with d4 and d8, it's nicer to have the actual dice (although actual knucklebones might be nicer still).
Customized dice are nothing new for a game. Frex, Hercules and Xena RPG and the latest edition of Warhammer Fantasy RP. But you have to include the customized dice in the base set of the game (as well as provide easy options for buying extra copies of the dice), or you will be cutting your own throat.
If you don't, people will attempt to improvise, and the difficulty in doing so will automatically turn people off the system. This is why a lot of the beta testers are uncomfortable with the additional dice.

4. I doubt I would buy new dice just to play DCC. If I play it (and at the moment I'm planning to simply mine it for ideas) I might try to patch it for the type of dice I already own, though I'm not sure about the feasibility of that yet.

ReplyDelete2. A d7 (which, by the way, is all you need besides the basic polyhedrals, and perhaps d10, to simulate all of those dice without rerolls).
3. Internet, at least until the new FLGS opens.
4. No. I'm probably going to stick to S&W Whitebox and original games (Traveller, RQ3, GURPS, The Arcanum, Hârnmaster, D&D Cyclopedia, D&D Holmes plus Holmes Treasury, and perhaps a few others) at this point. Maybe Dark Dungeons.

4. the requirement for these ridiculous dice has absolutely killed any possibility of me and my gaming group playing this game. The funky dice bring absolutely nothing to the game... and to me seem to be a verty thinly disguised under the table handshake between Goodman and Zocchi to drum up some demand for what are certainly the poorest selling dice on the planet (I dont doubt that even fudge dice sell better than these - and thats saying a LOT!). I dont care for the extra steps of either trying to use the 6 "normal" polyhedral dice to come up with numbers for the stupid "zoccihedron" numbers, nor will we use a computerized random number generator. In short - Goodman was extremely foolish to virtually require the use of these oddball dice - and is extremely short sighted not to realize this inept decision has cost him customers. A pity, really- since otherwise the DCC RPG held some promise.

4. It makes me slightly less to try it on my own. I'm not going to invest in a bunch of new kinds of dice to play a fantasy roleplaying game when I already have a bajillion fantasy roleplaying games at my fingertips. But then again, I probably wasn't going to try it on my own anyway--I actually play so damned few RPGs anymore. If I was going to run something, it just would not be DCC. If someone else was going to run DCC that I thought was a good GM, I'd be in in a heartbeat becqause I'm curious, and the weird dice wouldn't deter me. at least, I would use someone else's weird dice until I thought i was committed to the game.

3. Steal them from one of you.
4. I really hate hardwiring them in as much as I disliked having to hunt down and use funny dice in 1980.
It's like using The Club on your car, it's not so much that it will stop a thief as much as make them skip over yours in search of an easier mark. With a ton of other options I am going to stick with ones I already have the equipment for--and I am one of the ones that generally like many of DCC's features.
I have a set of glow-in-the-dark Zocchi dice & a d30, so I guess the d7 is all I lack... though d14/2 will serve. They're easy to find online, though I had to "crayon" mine myself.
ReplyDeleteWhile I have no interest in playing Dungeon Crawl Classics, thanks to the use of these uncommon dice the game is in itself not entirely uninteresting.

3. FLGS? I like to support them, and they have more knowledge of the hobby, and more resources, than I do. If they can't help, then I'd go to Gamescience first, since they are Zocchi's company, I think. Not only are they available here: http://www.gamescience.com/uniqueindividualdice
but I like the "sharp" dice they sell.
4. New dice is honestly one of the features that most makes me consider playing DCC. I like that it uses "weird" dice more than I like a lot of the rest of it.

3. FLGS - I like to see dice in person beforehand to make sure I can actually make out the numbers on the silly things - gotta have good contrast.
4. It doesn't help, though I'd probably just use regular dice and ignore unusable results where possible, i.e. d5 = d6 roll ignore 6, d7 =d8 roll ignore 8. Not sure about the d24 and d30, but i'm sure I could figure something out.
1 & 2: 4d3, 2d5, 0d7, 2d14, 2d16, 2d24, 2d30
ReplyDelete3: My local shops both carry the 12pc Gamescience sets. I also order dice online sometimes. Plus a local toy store has a bin of random dice that often has some interesting things. Got my six-sided d3s there.
The Gamescience 12pc sets are kind of pricey, but I bought a couple simply because I like dice.
4: Not much. I already have the dice, so it is nice to have another use for them. (Except the d7. I should get a couple of those.) If I didn't it would be an excuse to buy more dice, which is always welcome. Even without them, they're mostly easy to emulate with a standard set. I don't really see this as much of a positive or negative.
1) None.
ReplyDelete2) N/A
3) I went to the three sites listed in the beta, and ended up tearing my hair out in frustration at the pricing, obtuseness of the ordering process, or both.
4) I am a fairly poor gamer, and I was only *curious* about this game, not *interested* - it was going to be a hard sell to my gaming group. I don't see the point of plunking down a week's worth of gas money to get dice I will only use for one game - and a game that I have only casual interest in.
As a side note - none of the people who complain about WotC's Collectible Power Cards for DnD are talking about how great these special dice are, right? Because, I find it very hard not to see them as the same thing.
1. Two!
ReplyDelete2. I have d16 — for Blood Bowl — and a d30, which I had
grand ideas of using in a Labyrinth Lord game inspired by your d30 Rule, but that never happened.
3. I get most of my dice from The Dice Shop, as I don't have a local gaming shop. On the rare occasion that they don't have the specific die type I want, I'll scour eBay. A couple of years ago, I made a special trip while on holiday in Minnesota to The Source to pick up a Gamescience d20.
4. To be honest, yes. I really don't like the d5 and d7, as they seem clunky and ugly. However, they are only dice, so I'm probably being unreasonable; Limpey over at Aldeboran pointed out the other day that
the standard rpg dice looked pretty weird the first time we laid eyes on them, and that's a good point well made.
All that said, I haven't had a chance to try a whole bunch of rpgs I already like a lot, so in the case of something like Dungeon Crawl Classics — where it looks interesting but I have no real attachment — the funny dice are more of an excuse to look elsewhere than a proper deal breaker.
1) All of them
ReplyDelete2) I'd guess two to three sets, but I haven't counted.
3) Gamestation is good folks
4) I like me some odd dice. Any game that uses odd dice is more likely to get me to try it, although I'm not sure my players would ever convert.

ReplyDelete2. A d30, but it's old and chipped because we used to fire out out of a catapult we made using a wooden spoon.
3. I'd check Game Empire, my FLGS and if they didn't have 'em, I'd use good ole' Google to find 'em.
4. Although they're not platonic, I don't see them as being more "funky" than a d4 or d20. So... no. It wouldn't.

4. Discourage me? He'll, I bought them in anticipation of the DCC game!
I did own a D30 up until March, when I sold it and my copy of the D30 Adventure in a convention Charity Auction.
ReplyDeleteThe funky dice aren't, by themselves, a reason not to play the game, but they certainly do dampen my interest. I too get a 'gimmicky' feel from them -- and since I didn't really love the rest of DCC as I read it, it's just kind of icing on the "not the game for me" cake.
1. Nada, zlicho.
ReplyDelete2. see #1
3. FLGS
Before I heard anything about this game, I was already shopping around the FLGS for funny dice, especially D3 or D30 (I don't trust those wonky 5s and 7s). But they didn't have any except the D30, which turns out to be huge and expensive, both turn offs. Kinda hoping somebody makes a smaller version closer in size to the D20. I know they can, if they can make those mini D20s.
4. I like it. It seems like a fun thing to do and fun is why I play. The wonkier the dice the better.
I hate it when RPGs stick to D6s. Even pathfinder calls for D3 rolls and I don't recall anyone bellyaching about that.
I have two d30s...someone mentioned d34s, I also have two of those. I don't recall ever using them in a game.
ReplyDelete1. five
ReplyDelete2. d3, d5, d14, d16, d24
3. I can easily get a d30 from my local game shop and I know that Gamescience makes a d7 so if I need one a quick Google probably would lead me to amazon or whatever.
4. It depends on if they actually require a dice with that many sides or you can fudge it by using dice with a more stable number of sides. The d5 I have is nice and all but its considerably biased so I would rather just use a d10 with 1-5 being that and 6-10 being the result minus five.

3. I'd probably see about ordering them through my FLGS. Failing that, I don't have a favorite online dice seller so I'd probably search and compare prices.
4. I like funky dice (as a glance at my bag would show), but it is a major road block for me because it is for the rest of my group. I doubt they would be willing to get dice for just one game, and the workarounds are just clunky enough that I don't think they'd go over well either.

I'd be a hundred times more interested in a D&D that used only d20 and d6 (or, even better, only d6) than one that adds yet another type of die.
ReplyDeleteIf you have some spare cash, give the Dragon Age rpg a try. It's somewhat reminiscent of Red Box D&D -- although has some modern touches -- is d6 based.

Of the set [d3, d5, d7, d14, d16, d24, d30] how many of these dice do you own?
ReplyDelete0
If you own any of them, which ones do you have?
None. I never saw a use for them in play.
If you wanted to get some or all of them, where is the first place you would look?
Ebay or Zocchi's. My local game store doesn't carry any of them.
Does the need for these funky dice change your opinion about trying the DCC rpg?
It instantly turned off my excitement for the game. It made me feel like the developer gave me the finger requiring me to purchase arcane dice only made by one manufacturer.
1. None.
ReplyDelete2. See above
3. ... online? I've never bought dice online, so I'd start at Google. I know none of the game shops I have access to would have them; they wouldn't have the sales to justify keeping them in stock in any numbers.
4. Absolutely - it puts me right off. Fudge dice were annoying enough, but at least I have them now, and they can be used for multiple games. These things are useless in any other context, and TBH, the awkwardness of using a d3 rather than a d4, d7 rather than d8, etc, doesn't seem to do anything useful in mechanical terms.
just to expand on my earlier post - and as a counterpoint to the question asked here:
ReplyDeletehttp://greywulf.net/2011/06/funky-dice/
1. DCC is – in the final analysis – just a D&D variant – back in the day it was basically D&D or nothing, gamers didnt have a choice about whether to get the “funky D&D dice” or not. Now there are simply
too many alternatives that use the same dice that virtually every game already owns, making DCC pretty much a nonstarter for many people,
2. The dice used for D&D have been pretty well standardized for over 30 years.
3. A new set of zoccihedrons from gamescience costs 30 dollars ! – a pretty steep price that will undoubtedly present a significant barrier to newcomers to the hobby. Even supplying a substandard set with the beginners box (as B/X and BECMI D&D did) set will increase the price by at least ten dollars – probably more.
5. Any current roleplayers probably has a standard set of polyhedral dice.. in my case I have several sets – and I am not interested in spending so much as one more dollar buying new dice – that are required to to play just ONE of the 20+ rpgs I already own.
In short; While DCC looks great and held interest for me and my gaming group – it just isnt either revolutionary enough (as D&D was back in the day); nor quite interesting enough for any of us to want to pony up 30 dollars for dice plus the cost of the game itself…. so we will pass on this. Also -none of us have any interest in going through the etra steps to either simulate the funky dice with standard polyhedrals by rerolling or using charts either… just too cumbersome.
Thanks goodman…. but no thanks
