How do you protect your dices

By MetalHead84, in Battlelore

It seems that the paint on the Battlelore dice is easy to remove, I have the bad habit to hold the dice in my hand even when it's not my turn to play, so after a couple of game some of the dice start to loose their color.

Is there any way to protect that ? Or any place to buy official Battlelore dice ?

Ya, I'd love to get some new dice too. I'v only had mine for about five months and the lore symbols are almost gone except for the outline of the symbol.

Coat them with something that protects the color. Hair spray works reasonably well, clear paint would be better.

Somebody told me that earlier print of the game have this problem, and that FFG can replace them, I have write to the customer service and they will send me a new set.

Really good customer services

What about varnish? That should work too. To be honest, I think Days of Wonder didn't do a very good job with the dice at all.

You will still want to coat the dice with something - the improved dice still suffer from wear issues.

I long to play the game enough to have this problem.

I highly suggest two coats of Citadel Paints' "Purity Seal", which is basically non-gloss varnish. I sprayed my dice as soon as I noticed the colors were starting to fade. Works great!

Thanks for the advice everybody!
