A poll was mentioned... a poll has been posted.

This poll will judge the interest in whether Aberrant Games pursues faction dice for Rezolution or not. Your input is appreciated.

I personally would buy a set of each, as I own a Force for each Faction.

I'd likely buy some, at least CSO and APAC as I have minis for those lists

I would be interested depending on what they look like. Readability is a primary issue for me. If they're not high visibility I don't care how cool they look. It's a wargame after all and I enjoy playing more than having cool dice. If only one side changes it really doesn't matter. It could say C.S.O. or whatever and I'd be fine with it...
Pyreos
Personally I think you could easily get away with just styilizing the numbers such as would be fitting for each Faction. Vatacina could be curlier, or look like manuscript, CSO would be blocky and official looking, Dravani could be crazy and strange, the APAC would merely have a more asian feel to the characters, and the Ronin could be rougher and dirtier. This having been said, I entirely agree with Sherman on readability. No one wants to have dice that need to be looked closely at after each roll or could be misread.

You know I'm a sucker for anything Rez - so some APAC dice, some Vat. and maybe a third set with crosshairs imposed over Tony's head smile.gif

As everyone in my old SD community knows, I played MWDA with my good old Steel Wolves dice religiously... and got rewarded with absolutely appauling rolls.
This fate has followed me when I use these dice for Reszolution.
Gimme my APAC dice, I need to shake the cursed rolls away and if that works then the 5-8 bucks I pay for each 4 will be worth it.

I'd maybe buy some but isn't there much more import missing stuff at the moment?

I almost answered number 4 just because I really liked the humor tongue.gif

I answered "No thanks." I have bought faction dice in the past. My problem with faction dice is depending on who makes them you always have to pause a second to remember if the faction symbol is a 1 or a 6.

Having said that, I do like Pyreos's suggestion about a stylized look to the numbers and colors instead of a faction symbol. Taking that approach I would definately jump on board. smile.gif

Like what?
We have a complete rules set, a campaign book, various free downloads that include new rules, scenarios, etc, and 5 factions of miniatures plus mercs. And now that the Vatacina (the 5th) have the Fencer and the Purifyer they are more-than competitive.

And yes, there are new models for every faction still in the works on down the pipe but as for "missing stuff" - I'd like to hear what it is in your opinion.

Thanks!

I know that I'd like to see penal trooper minis for the CSO. How about the Shadow Assassin?

If you only knew how many times I've been told that!

(then you could tell me because I can't remember... wink.gif )
Endgame
I support faction dice but only if they are very high contrast. Purple w/ White pips: Pass Red w/ Gold Pips: Fail. Beige w/ Black Pips: Pass. Black w/ Red Pips? Fail.

I think you get the idea wink.gif
