Kickstarter - Solid Copper RPG Gaming Dice - Hand Stamped, Old World Style


Solid Copper RPG Gaming Dice.

I'm not so sure how well this will work out in actual gaming. Wait, I actually DO know, as I own a set of copper polyhedrals. If I don't put a towel or cloth down before rolling these fucking dice, I literally dent my desk. Found out the hard way.

Now, these are hand stamped, which is kinda cool. They are also only available as a D6 (with possible D4 and D12 variations down the line) which is, to be honest, a bit lame for the average OSR gamer.

And yes, while the picture above looks like everything is finely balanced and centered, it will not always be the case.


Two dice for $20. Five dice for $40 (with a free leather dice bag)

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not feeling it...

  1. I don't "get" dice kickstarters. Of course, I also don't understand people who keep claiming they "Need Moar Dice." You can only use so many at once. I see people buying the "Bucket o' Dice" at Gen Con and I truly don't understand the attraction.

    Don't get me wrong. I like my Gamescience dice. But if I lost them, tomorrow I'd just go out and buy whatever the FLGS had. They're just dice; pre-internet random number generators.

  2. Dice kickstarters seldom come through. With their current track record I would only back a company that has proven themselves. It evil hat does a dice kickstarter I'm in. Otherwise it's usually some guy that did a flashy CGI proof of concept on a six sider. He grabs the money and runs. Almost. Every. Time.
