Well, GW block dice are hard to come-by from what I understand. And not everybody is aware that the NAF even exists. Most other people in my league have no clue of the on-line community except from what me and another guy tell them, so they don't know that NAF exists.
BTW, I agree that 26AU$ is crazy. But if you lost your block dice and you like bloodbowl and you can't figure-out where to get block dice from, well 26AU$ may be worth it to you.

sure, but if you're willing to fork out that money for some dice, surely you'd do SOME research.

I might sell mine. I have the NAF set now. Though $15 US isn't even £10 here. Not enough for my precious block dice!!

A TBBer with poor English needed dice, I had them, we made a deal. I'm not worried about it. For the longest time, you couldn't sell 3 of them for $2.50 including shipping. EBay runs in cycles. I used to work those cycles harder than Tritex does now. It's not the deal it once was though. I'll more of a BB philanthropist than capitalist now.

Cool...I'll give you $50.00 US for a painted Ogre Team. I intend on using the team to raise money for the Stunty Support Fund. Where every Wooden Spoon won will go toward building a home for these little down-and-out fells.
Won't you donate to show that you care?

Why not just make up a chart to add into your Blood Bowl stuff that lists 1-6 with each number corresponing to a result on a blocking dice. Then you would most likely want to laminate it. That way, if you do not have the official blocking dice, you could always play as though you did.

i may be looking at this topic wrong, but i don't think it's funny. the block dice should be available. and if you're not into tourny's, what does naf do for you other than give you a cool set of dice? i'm not trying to slag the naf, mind you. but i would rather get 20 white block dice than 3 colored...
