[Deptheads] Strategicon - Dice

So, I finally saw the response to my earlier e-mail.  I am fine with not selling dice in the dealer room.  It doesn't matter to me at all.  However, I would point out that Chessex allows 5 different colors/styles per order, so we could get one type for sale and another type for volunteers.

Also, given that option, I would like to order three or four different kinds for BGs.  My original idea was to give out a different pair of dice to GMs, BGHQ volunteers, and volunteers who spent 12 to 16 hours working, and finally those who put in more than 24 hours.  Given that I thought I was ordering these myself just for BGs, I figured five different styles would be enough.  If RPG has more than one that it wants to use though, I will rethink my breakdown.

Whenever the order is made, I think I will need about 200 dice.  100 pairs should be enough for all the BG volunteers.  Has the order been placed yet?

I agree with Victor...
