By the way there are blank dice sold, copy the markings from the set on a printer that can print clear decals, or hand write them, paint the dice.

May be cheaper than buying them, unless you dont care about paying $1 per dice, which isn't bad, but looking at the supplemental set for $12.95 you don't get enough dice to make a big pool, (read the set list and you will be surprised that its nothing compared to what you get in the main box)

if you bought that set yo would still need to borrow from the GM, i'd imagine you need a couple sets, which will get pricey.

With the make your own option you can get the dice you want based on your characters needs.

Dont worry, no matter how complex FFG makes it, people will be able to pirate this game, dice and all LOL.

Time to sue Apple. There's no app for this.

Good idea. My group is starting up this game next, and as the owner of the game, I am already sweating the dice issue.

lol

I see another alternative to buying blanks is to paint a printed die, not an engraved one, put decals or hand writing on it, then give it a sealing clear coat.

Are blank dice typically available at gaming shops?

yes, they are at my shop, however the shop I go to is the most complete RPG gaming store i've ever seen. the average price is .80 cents USD per die. A cheaper route is to repaint non engraved dice that you already have. add symbols and clear coat. The additional dice sold by FFG are a pre picked lot, which may or may not be what you need to help your dice pools and your groups dice pools

It would be nice if FFG sold them individually online, or sold batches to retailers to sell as singles to customers.

Though for the die-hard hobbyists out there, a dremel-multi tool with some engraving drill-bits could be used to create custom, engraved dice.

(I have a dremel knock-off myself, but it's strong enough to be able to cause deep grooves in solid brass and it's actually smaller and easier to handle than a normal dremel. And I love it!)

I'm taking the cheesy way out :-D ... just need my set to come in to replace the dice textures...
