Dice!

[active_apathy]

This poll is probably most of interest to paper and dice roleplayers, but everyone should play. I'm curious to see just how many dice it's (a)typical for people to own.

Feel free to link or repost this poll in your own journals (by pasting "<lj-poll-1356329>" into an entry where you'd like it to appear), as more data makes the results betterer.

[No, just pink. Nice manly, solid, no-nonsense pink.]

I like the straightforward D% system used by UA, for example.

Like the straightforward d100 system used by (proper) Call of Cthulhu? It could work. Possibly.

(Hmph. Fie upon your dismissal of sparkly pink as being an inferior dice colour option only suitable for letting women pretend that we're allowed to pretend that little plastic people are killing each other.)

CoC is more complicated than UA. UA's system is very very awesome and simple and streamlined. I think it's used for some other systems as well, but the details escape me.

[False misogyny is the best kind. :D Although have you SEEN how anti-ladies GW's games are? My god. All women are either naked frenzied beasts, wicked sorceresses or nuns with guns.]

*peers at UA* Ooh. Wilderness of Mirrors might be an option, too: it's designed as a rules-light spy game that focuses on betrayal and mistrust.

(I have. I have indeed. It kind of makes me want to beat them to death with a large box of unclothed sorceress miniatures.)

I've never heard of it, but you've got me interested with that sentence.

[I can't believe I'd never even noticed before a few months ago.]

Link!

(I'm pretty sure most Warhammer players still haven't. And never will.)

Thanks! I'll check it out.

[I'm just angry I didn't notice earlier.]
