Can't use d12s as caltrops. Checkmate atheists.
Would the d4 move like a bishop?
Nope, pawn. A bishop is clearly a d8
I'm quite partial to the idea of the triple four die. It's a D12 with three sets of D4 faces
I had someone argue that their cherished d100 gave a different probability than 2d10.
I imagine this was them knowing that 2d6 is different to 1d12 and just not quite understanding why that doesn't apply to two d10s used to roll a d100
The d4's where the numbers are in a cluster are too hard to read. I've had to swap them in most games because most players need to second guess any rolls with them.
I'm sure people prefer them in some groups and power to them, but I detest them and if a dice set doesn't have the other default, I don't buy em.
I only know that you read the base, not the point, because my dad had a set of dice that came with a d4 that was arranged like that. His were exceptionally hard to read, as they were yellow plastic with no paint to highlight the grooved numbers. First thing I bought at GenCon was a proper set of black dice with silver numbers.
I also prefer the point to be the number that you're expected to read.
A d12 is superior to every other dice shape. Not only is it highly composite, but it also is less likely to roll of the side of a table and feels better in the hand.
We convert all die to binary and use coins.
This is the superior method.
stop rolling d4 and keep them locked up where i can't step on them in the middle of the night
Nice try... but there are too many hobby historians involved in fantasy rpg's to not know that a D4 is THE original die. Much older than that stupid cube we -even with all our modern tech- can barely bring to be really balanced and rolling well.
Behold! The D4
