I think the push result should look the same, but other than that think they are fine/great. It's the result that matters not the picture of the result. |

While I like the concept of the numbered block dice I don't like the implemention and find them less easy to read which may cause some misclicks.
As has been said the use of words (push pow etc)could work well too.
I do however like the new impact ones best and would advocate their use in the new client. |

However we've sold somewhere around 2000 sets of those dice ... but there are now 2 companies already selling knockoffs ... so when a 3rd came to us and wanted to sell some we sold them the designs you see above that we had done by an artist but had never used.
For the person that asked if they should use those or if I had graphics. If the above images are actually going to be used ... have the person in charge of that modification email me at Impact! and I'll work on getting them a better image to use.

If Kalimar is good with these I will email you Galak and get the artwork to replace the current dice images.
Thanks for the offer. |

I'd have been OK with the "new" dice if it weren't for the "X" in place of the skulls. Galak's dice are too sweet to ignore though. I'm all for adopting those when the we get approval. |

What FFB logo?
I think this is a great opportunity to have the client using 'real' dice and give a little nod to Galak/Impact for their efforts with FBB. |

While I still think dice would not be what GW would attack first, you are right that the poll needed more options.
I made that poll in a hurry I admit, and I didnt realize how hot an issue this turned out to be, I just wanted to see if i was the only one that really did not like the current design.
Guess I wasn't :s |

Thanks!
I think they work better now, and everyone gets their skull dice. I tried to keep it really simple with only 3 icons. Never did understand the ! on defender stumbles. |

I concur, good job on the new dice.
And thanks to Galak for offering to use the new design, even if it didnt't port well to the client. |

We tried a couple sets of the Impact dice on both black and white dice, plus with colour icons, but they didn't work as well at the small size.
Hope everyone is enjoying the new ones. |
