During the general ooh-ing and ahh-ing at the shiny new NAF dice (who don't normally get theirs till they renew at Spiky), we sat around discussing which order the NAF dice came out (the years are getting hazy!).

This is the list I came up with - if there are any corrections, please let me know.

Oct 2002 - Black with Gold
May 2004 - 1st run Purple with Silver (rarer); 2nd run Pink with Silver (bigger production run)
May 2005 - Dark blue with Silver
May 2006 - Dark green with Red(!)
May 2007 - Orange with Blue
May 2008 - Yellow with Black
May 2009 - Red with White
May 2010 - Light blue with Black
May 2011 - Lime(?) green with Black
May 2012 - Silver marbling with Black

Black ones have 18 months as released at Spiky 02. All others released at the Blood Bowl/BBGT/NAF Championship.

Cheers for the corrections and clarifications.

I will soon have the complete set of colours and will upload a picture of them all, that is if someone else doesn't do it before me.

Edit:- I have to learn how to shrink these pics via my phone, I really do :oops:

I got my black and dark blue sets for $100 dollars the pair ($100 for all 6 dice). You just have to know who to talk to.

I only have the red set of NAF dice from when I joined. I have a couple other sets of other companies dice, but it doesn't matter because they'll never get used unless I actually travel to a tournament somewhere as I believe I am the only TTBB player in this region.

I just had to score a TD on John Lewis in a 4 turn game back in 2003! :smoking:

I have the lot apart from the pink, which I once lent to a gaming club for everyone's use, and never got back.

They were the ugliest anyway.

Weren't the pink before the dark blue though?

Yup.

I've got them all, except the pink ones. Never liked them anyway.

2004: 1st run Purple/Silver (rarer); 2nd run Pink/Silver (bigger production run). IIRC correctly there were twice as many 'pink' produced than 'purple'.

Release day has always been The Blood Bowl/ BBGT/ NAF Championship, with the exception of the black, which were indeed released at Spiky 02 (October) and ran until The Blood Bowl May 04.
They arrived at my house mid 2002, quite a rush and very top secret! I must confess myself and Longfang started using ours against each other immediately in private (like naughty schoolboys), and I gave a strictly confidential sneak peak to a couple of trusted guys at the 1st Tulips tourney in July 02.
I vividly remember opening the box, JKL had told me to expect a package from GW and to keep it secret, but not what was in it.... I opened the box and...Wooooooah!!! :)
