They know about it.

Larry confirmed today on his webside that the oceans will be blue, and that the game will use a “special dice”.

Special dice? What can be? The Bomb?  :-D

Has any one seen the map yet? (besides Larry Harris)

Attack! from Eagle Games use a dice without numbers, but with symbols of the units. One side has picture of a tank, other side has pic of artillery and so on, and if the side with inf land up then one inf has a hit.

No I dont think Larry will use that system, but maybe a dice with a hit-symbol on two or three of the sides, and rest of sides are blank. Remember that in Guad all units hit on a 2 or less, and in BotBulge all units hit on a 6 or less (D12), so this dice dont need numbered sides.

I do not like such dice and random casualties. I like the way dice works in Revised.

So I hope that Mr. Harris intends some sort of customized dice. For example Olive Green with white star instead of dot for USA etc.    :-D

[losttribe04]

I think dice like Romulus is describing would be awesome.

“These dice go to eleven”

[Romulus]

Eleven?!?!!? They lost a side !??!?!?

[Imperious Leader]

I think the “one” result will have the national token of each nation and you will get 30 dice (5 of each x 6 players)

Thats what i would do.

Larry say it will be black dice and white dice

Black and white dice have nothing special.

Do you mean you haven’t seen ‘This is Spinal tap’ ? :-o

Or you can’t wait to see the game ? :-D

Personally I hope they keep the same rules… randomizing casualties will take a lot of tactics away from the game.
