Dice production

Unread post by Thirdway Industries »

Hi Guys, need an info (hope I have posted in the right section).
There are good websites or production houses that do quality (and maybe cheap - but I am looking for quality) dices?

Thank you in advance :)

Cheers

Giovanni

Chessex is a very popular company. I've seen several campaigns go with them.

I could never understand that. Do people really play cards with their dice or visa versa or is that some kind of "Fluff" item....

By the way, I am not adding any dice reward to my campaigns ;)
This is for another project I have in mind, not related with playing cards design.

Pretty sure it's fluff. Never heard of any games that use both playing cards and dice.

Look for that guy. he defiantly inhaled....

In my third deck, which will be my casino game called "GoldKing"; It's similar to BlackJack Your trying to get to 31 instead of 21. If you get a King which is 15 (Queen =14, Bishop = 13 and ...) and a Joker which could be 16 or 0 that would be 31 points. You win. King and Joker is basically my blackjack. The joker is like the Ace which can be 11 or 1. I was thinking since I'm changing the 10 card to the (T) or ten or (T)ower card. If you got 3 tower cards for 30 points. You win. Ever heard of a game where less points you win. What is formidable than 3 towers. It's similar like in Spanish 21 when you get three 7's of the same suit. You get a big fat bonus. Cards and Dice. hmmm That might be like printing playing cards to look like money. Why has it not been done before.
