Please make the d12/d3 dice an add-on for a future Kickstarter (like the Hexagram).

The $6+ shipping cost for two dice is a bit hard to justify at the moment.

Possibly as a limited reward level. We will look at options.

I like the d3/d12 just for the fact that old school gaming generally needs weird dice. :) I would like to see d8/d4 or d8/d2 in this similar style (the same font).

I also would like to see these on the next kickstarter. A shipping thing.

I also love those black d6 dice with the same font along with the megahex dice that you previewed in an KS update. How far along are those waiting to be made?

Prototypes are in. We just have to finalize a home for them and create the full run of dice.

Maybe a d12/d4/d2 would be an idea: It's a d12 dodecahedren with pips 1 through 4 printed 3 times, and the pips are in light or dark ink. Light/dark would be the d2 option.

That reminds me: I haven't heard from the megahex dice in a while.

d12 is clearly the best of the goofy dice. When I was a kid I wrote a fantasy heart-breaker system entirely around the idea that it is preferable to roll 1d12 whenever possible.

Can we change the vermin stacking limit to 12 to use the new dice as markers to be placed on the type of vermin counter?

Is there a vermin/swarm-creature stacking limit? I wasn't aware of one. It seems like any number of bees, rats, etc. could be in your hex.

Appreciate that, Phil. As a stand-alone order, $6+ shipping for two dice is hard to justify right now.

The preorder store is best for ordering multiple sets of dice, not just one or two dice. We will also offer dice on Warehouse 23 starting in January.
