Newb question - block dice

Post by Thasmodious »

Having multiple very old BB sets (1st, 2nd ed), we have no block dice and are organizing a new league (haven't played in a very long time) using the LRB v5 rules.

As a result, I have a very simple noob question. There are 6 sides on a d6 and 5 results on the block table, which one occupies two faces so we can fake block dice?

Thanks

The Pushed Result.

In general, the dice rolls are considered to correspond with these numbers respectively:

1: Attacker Down
2: Both Down
3: Pushed
4: Pushed
5: Defender Stumbles
6: Defender Down

A Good example of this is Impact! Miniature's dice as shown here:

Thank you very much!

And for the link. $18 seems a bit high for three dice, but I definetely one that spends money on my hobbies, so if our league sticks and we play regularly, I'll be buying some I'm sure.

The $18 ones were custom dice from Chessex, where you could choose the colour of both the dice and the ink, from a list of 40-odd.

Iirc, there are meant to be "normal" Impact dice in the store sometime this month, at about $6 or $7 for 3.
