I can hook you up with some blocking dice, and you could always make your own pitch...

the dice are the biggest trick. the pitch you can make yourself. Personally i prefer my homemade pitches to the GW one. Welllllllll i really do like the old foam pitch but its sorta rare these days. I had thought about making a laytex mold out of it so i could cast the thing in resin, then making a wooden frame for it. The foam is just to fragile to travel with
Still in the end i suppose i like the printer pitches better for ease of use.

You get a set of cool black block dice when joining the NAF (
http://www.thenaf.net ), with the low dollar it's way cheaper than buying from EBay ...

Thanks for the help. I'm new to the game (as you've probaly guessed) and really impressed with this site and the enthusiasm of the fans.
I like the pitch witch, and I'll try to get it to work, when I've acces to a decent printer.
The NAF dices look like an ok solution, and I'm sure I'll soon get annoyed enough playing with reg. d6 to hook up.
Cheers!
Melifaxis, you got dice?

Hey Melifaxis, I just noticed that you said you have Block dice. Do you have many and are they for sale?
On the topic, anyone else have Block dice for sale?
I m part owner of a gaming store and we desperately need Block dice for league and tourney play (we ve had quite a few walk out of the store so we need to replenish). We ve gone so far as to print out the Block Dice icons on self adhesive paper and then stick them over the pips of normal d6 s... but it s kind of cheesy work-around. Some more of the real thing would be nice.
Let me know.

I have about 7 extras currently, but you can order them from GW-US for $0.50 each. Part number 99359999016. They don't show up online if you do a search though.
