Convoy Dice

@pyrix137 Is anyone here playing Conquest of Nerath?
It is VERY Gamemaster Series-like so I guess a sizeable part of Axis and Allies players might like it.

I just bought this game…

I could help with financing?

Dice would have either land or naval with a separate category of Air because that branch overlaps both

Symbols for land: ( green) 6 dice in set
Infantry x 1
Armour x1
Mech x1
Artillery x2
Blank x1

Symbols for Naval: ( blue) 6 dice in set

Battleship x1
Cruiser x1
Destroyer x1
Submarine x2
Blank x1

Symbols for Air: (white) 6 dice in set

Fighter x2
Fighter-Bomber x2
Strategic Bomber x 2

I prefer D2 systems after using D12 for many years. D2 offers alot of flexibility. For example Infantry defend at 2 and attack at 1, etc

Usually, you can just flip a coin to decide if your attacking or defending. However you do need a D12 for shore bombardment rolls only, since the BB hits on 1-3.

AKA: Hit Dice… there are already many options like this out there, including different colored dice for which are 1-hit, 2-hit, 3-hit, etc… both IWNGU and Young Grasshopper offer Hit Dice as an alternative to the national battle dice.

@Dafyd:

or the little “IG JOES”

:lol: :lol: :lol:

thanks IWNGU :)

No official news; might have to buy some blanks and customize myself.

Will pass on any new suggestions to the site.

@Gargantua:

Has anyone thought making the board from Acrylic??

Or is it too prone to breakage?

I had considered etching the country and seazone borders into the bottom of the acrylic topper on our topograhical board.  Would have been very cool, but too difficult at the time (skill level required was beyond me at the time).

I don’t think it would have been particularly prone to breakage.  Acrylic sheets are pretty resiliant.  SCRATCHING on the other hand would be a major issue to deal with.
