    Hey Wally, interesting dice, that black die looked like it pulled to the 3 side of the dice. Blackmoor is definitely one of my favorite campaign settings. I forgot about Dan going to Europe and the American company. I know war gaming was an influence, they used d12. Kevin at D&D Homebrew has 2d12 as his logo, it's tribute to the old days (The Great Old Ones).
    Thanks Wally you have a wonderful day!

      Yeah, this was an interesting and fun video for me. I was really glad to have found Dave Arneson's actual quotes because I get really nervous trying to be accurate when it comes to historical events. I didn't start playing until 1984, so I missed quite a bit up to then, lol. Cheers Matt!

    Love the history! I started with AD&D but we were using modern d20s by that point!

    Cool information. I don't remember having those.

      If you started when I did, we didn't have them. I started in 84, about 5 years later, I believe. And of course, no game stores back then.

    interesting dice, always fun to see how things come about b/c of necessity/convenience
    Thanks for the info, and the new dice looks fun

      Thank you, my friend. Yep. I really like the dyadics... and, this video led me to buy a vintage 1970s die to add to my collection. Found one on ebay for a good price (the red one I colored with a crayon in the video). Cheers!

    I had no idea 😲
    I did crayon in my first set, though.
    Why I used my orange crayon, instead of purple or bronze, what was i thinking 🤦‍♀️
    FYI: The dice were neon green.

      Crayons + Dice are not as fun as I remember, lol. Filling these in for the video was a bit frustrating and time consuming, for sure.

    More dice rolling at once = more neuron activation.
