I hate that the default grid mechanics in 5(.5)e are square circles, like, they really think people who want precise grid based combat aren’t capable of using the alternating 5/10 ft. diagonals rule

Bard: ooh, me next ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Someone’s just jealous that Vicious Mockery and Faerie Fire aren’t on their spell list

DM Ron when the players try to argue with his interpretation of the rules:

And now they all think they’re named “dipshit”

Brennan Lee Mulligan in shambles

I could change it to not be ambiguous, but this is funny to me so I’m leaving it

Summon 8 monkeys, command half of them to attempt to stabilize the Paladin. They’ll probably be fine for a round if they just went down

Or a d12 with 1-4 three times, which is what I use for my d4s

Picture I made for this thread a few months ago:

That’s actually a tough choice, I like having a variety of shapes for my click clacks but I despise the caltrop d4

Edit: I’ve thought about it, and if I had to choose between a “standard” dice set with tetrahedron d4, or only a pool of d6s, I would choose the dice set and try to avoid ever using a d4.

Unfortunately we’re still stuck with caltrops as the standard d4 shape when so many better options exist

Boo, that stuff’s so boring. When are we going to tan some leather?

Yeah, my character is realizing that the nobles that want to depose the king in favor of a ruling council are themselves just as corrupt if not more, and that the only real answer is a worker’s revolution. So this might end up being a bit of an influence in this weekend’s events.

In the back of the 2014 DMG is a set of tables for generating random dungeons. I thought it would be fun to see how that goes. After spending maybe 6 hours on it across a few days, the abomination I created ended up making DungeonScrawl crash in my browser and be unable to work on it further, but if it hadn’t it probably would’ve ended up like roughly 1/4 of this.

1/10 do not recommend

There’s these d8s that use numerals for 1-8 and pips for 1-4 repeated twice. With three different sets of symbols (say by adding roman numerals) you could have a d12 that also functions as a d6 and a d4, though I can’t say I’ve seen one. Trying to put 3 sets of symbols on each die face may create readability issues though.

I think there’s other dice out there that function as more than one die but I can’t find them atm. There’s also ones that are basically just a fidget spinner with various segments or sets of fidget spinners for each die, but you don’t actually roll those so I’m not counting them.

These are the ones I started with. I wish they had focused more on the d4 line than the d6 line but that’d be like asking Wizards of the Coast to make good martials

Chessex ones available in a few variations with roman numerals

pipped 12 sided d4s, a bit more expensive

And if you really have money to burn, these are the only metal ones I could reliably find. It’s a chonky boy, bigger than a d12 you’ll normally get, basically the size of a d20, maybe even a bit bigger.

There was a game a few years ago called Nibiru that apparently has a decently priced set of 6 metal 12-sided d4s with cuneiform symbols, but it doesn’t seem like anyone in the US has the dice in stock (I found one website but I’m pretty sure it was gonna scam me). This appears to be the publisher’s website from the UK, though it has had that message about restocking their warehouse since at least this past July so idk, but they say the dice are in stock. Searching on Google were also some Spanish and German sites that maybe had them in stock, but I have no idea if those sites are reputable.

Who needs glances when you have organization? There’s also versions that use pips or roman numerals or other symbols to make them visually distinct. You could also get them in a different color. Inferior shapes should never be accepted for convenience.

(best d4 shape is dodecahedron with 1-4 repeated 3 times, fight me)

Only 1, maybe 2
