How many dice?

I wonder if the SW dice app will include Genesys as well or if it will be a stand alone app. I'll certainly purchase an app as well but I love the feel of physical dice too much than to rely solely on the app.

Even if they made us buy a whole new dice app, I'd promptly cough up the $5... so very much worth it.

I thought we had determined the genesys dice pack swaps out the force die for a second red?

According to the product description, there is only one red:

The Genesys Roleplaying Dice Pack features three Ability dice, three Difficulty dice, two Setback dice, two Boost dice, two Proficiency dice and a Challenge die , giving you everything you need to run your own game of Genesys .

However, according to the article on the dice it comes with two Challenge Dice. https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2017/6/27/genesys-roleplaying-dice-pack/

"The Genesys Roleplaying Dice Pack features three Ability dice, three Difficulty dice, two Setback dice, two Boost dice, two Proficiency dice, and two Challenge dice."

Their information is inconsistent between the two sources. So far no clarification has been forthcoming.

In other threads people have contacted various officials and such forth, we get two reds. This comes up in every dice thread (lol) I feel like we should make a sticky that just has "Two Reds, Folks" as the subject line and nothing else. Mostly to confuse newcomers into saying "two red whats?" at which point we can just make up increasingly absurdist answers.

It'll be fun times, guarantee it.

You'd think after this long, somebody could get in there and edit the product description.

You saved me $30, thank you :)

We get 2 red but 1 less of any other color? Or the total is +1 ?

No Force die.

I decided to up from 3 to 5 sets because sadly there is only one red die per set. I will have to make Genesys popular in my group and am aware that they will be reluctant to purcghase sets on their own. And as some players are parts from my family it will not matter anyways.

I wonder if the SW dice app will include Genesys as well or if it will be a stand alone app. I'll certainly purchase an app as well but I love the feel of physical dice too much than to rely solely on the app.

My impressionis that because it is a star wars app with disney slapped on the copyright page, Genesys dice will not be included in that roller. Ffg probably wants to keep disneyaway from this to avoid any possible conflicts in their licenses.

Maybe they'll put out a dedicated genesys dice app for $2-3 or something.

According to comrade party secretery of the Fantastic Socialist Games, the 5 years plan will see Genesys hitting shelf in due schedule to be provided to the working class (within the coming 10 years).

There are three starting classes covered in the book: the intellectual (mostly high ranking party official with the talent "I'm always right!"), the worker (cunning, wisdom and intelligence can never be higher than 1 with the starting talent "the party is always right!") and the capitalistic enemy of the people (whose every attributes can never go beyond 1 because he is a misleaded cowardly weakling with the starting talent "I am always wrong and should be punished for my hideous crimes against the people").

@2P51 with the save, truly a hero of the proletariat.

Lotta syllables in that P word for me....I prefer 'dudes' or 'the dudes'....

@2P51 rejects the haughty complications of bourgeoisie linguistics, instead preferring the language of the revolution and the 'common dude'

Because.. Two Reds, Folks.

Except in the option Khmer Rogue setting, the intellectual is wiped out due to their threat to ordinary working people. Remember that.

The knowledge skills will be removed from this setting and there will be only one class, the farmer (talent "death to all four-eyes").
