Why in God's name does DCC require oddball dice, when i already own hundreds of dice?

Quote from: Razor 007;1098627The d24 and d30 roll like crazy. Better not roll them hard; they will leave the table.

I have one of those d100 die which will roll forever unless you use a dice tray.

I got a walled dice tray that cures the big number dice problem.

Sort of off topic, but I just picked up one of the 7 piece themed dice sets for the Pathfinder adventure path; Tyrant's Grasp. Very DCC appropriate, in my opinion. I wish it was a larger set, with more dice; but the look is very good.

I too greatly prefer rolling dice in a walled tray. One of my favorites is a 3" deep bamboo bowl, with a flat bottom within and without. Another favorite is a felt lined paper tray, for 8.5" x 11" paper.

I rolled up Ability scores for 24 characters. 3d6, straight down the line. ONE 18 was rolled, and only two 17's. 10's and 11's were almost celebrated. One character has a 4 Constitution.

I have the plain jane Easy Roller Dice Tray and it works well enough, though Id sure like to have one with the lid and edge storage. The felt lining tends to pick up household fuzz.

I picked up the hardcover, Lhankmar boxed set and set of dice at Dragonflight. Really enjoying what I'm reading. TONS of cool ideas in here with fantastic flavour. The chaps from Goodman Games were super helpful too.

I just picked up yet another DCC dice set; so I now have 2 sets of the "Mustachioed Magician" DCC dice.

I didn't need to start another dice obsession......

Can you post more about tbis in my Lankhmar thread? Thanks!

I like that the Warrior gets to roll an extra die; improving his chance to hit, when making physical attacks. The die type rolled for this gets larger as the Warrior increases in level, too.
