The best of rules; the worst of rules.

I already have D16 - I believe they were originally created for a Lottery in, possibly, the Netherlands or Belgium (or was that the D24...)

Now you can get D5, D7, etc...

I want a D11 !

Games Workshop will shortly be releasing a d16 for use with their revamped Blood Bowl game.

The mind boggles.

d16s are available in traditional 'cone':

Don't forget the humble d2 which has settled many an argument:

[toxicpixie]

Or the humble D1 - that's solved quite a few, and it's newer descendants probably more!

+1

There is also the imaginary d(sqrt -1) 

Do you have a set with just ones? I could use them to give me the results I usually get with d6's

As far as "The Worst" is concerned, I won't name names, but I will say:

- any game that allows only one player to act at a time (card activation, funky initiative system, whatever) should never be played with more than 4 players. I have experienced 6- or 7-player games where the inevitable arithmetic means each person spends 80+% of the game just watching and twitching impatiently until their turn finally comes round (at least, if that person's me they do);

- and a special dishonourable mention for a computer-moderated game which had essentially the same vice as above, compounded by the fact that we didn't even get to roll dice, just watch someone else busily clicking a mouse and eventually informing us of whatever trivial result the computer had calculated.

Tbe best: Warmaster and variants (ancient, medieval, fantasy)

Because they are fun for me to play with.

The Best (Current version October 2016)

Sharp Practice 2

Clearly written, give a fast moving game that will allow players to be involved with plenty of command choices in their game.

Honourable Mentions

Two Hour Wargames reaction system games - great for solo play as they have lots of ways of simulating the behaviour of opposing units and what happens when you encounter them.

Worst

WRG 6th Edition ancients - too complex, too much emphasis on kit and points values. Obtuse wording.
