Favorite Dice Type
Depending on the make and version of the RPG you use there will be accompanying dice that may or may not be to your liking. Some humans refer to this as 'Dice Systems'. Which is your favorite type of dice: the standard 1D6 (has six sides and numbers from 1 to 6), D4, D8, D10, D12, D20, D100?
I have always liked 10 sided dice. They make good percentage dice as one acts as units and the other tens. I have always thought that RPGing should be based on percentages like the Rune Quest system and 1D10s are a good way to do it.
D20 all the way. Its the critical dice in all the major D20 sytem Rpgs, and the D20 system is my favourite
I like the D10 system that whitewolf employs in their games. While it can get a little complicated at high levels nothing beats rolling a big handful of dice.
Although I am somewhat a dice collector and have various kinds, I find myself drawn to and preferring simple D6, 2-4 rolled at a time if possible. I don't like single die rolls as the element of chance is too high, where with multiple summed rolls, you have ranges of average, unlikely, etc. I'd pick D10 if I had to use funky dice, and while I'm not fond of the 'two single rolls' of D10 for D100, it IS at least a "round" range from 1-100.
