Title: Dice, Dice, Dice and more dice....
Post by: Obsidian23 on 14 November 2017, 03:01:27 PM
Hello all,

Thought I would put this out there after trolling through many a web site.

I am looking for a maker of dice that has Napoleonic symbols as the 6 on a D6.  Example, union Jack for the British.  Tricolour for the French, double eagle for the Austrians, single eagle for Russians (Or other way round) etc.

Would appreciate any knowledge on this.

Cheers,

Scott

Such things do exists  my ACW dice testify, where the 6 is represented by stats 'n stripes, southern cross, Grant and Lee, Union soldier, confederate soldier, riverboat, ironclad, drum rifle etc. Unfortunately no idea where they came from.

diceofwar.com.au

do Napoleonic dice featuring flags in a very attractive tin. Sets of 10.

Our club had custom die made, but can't remember the supplier :(. All we had to do was supply the artwork and say which numbered face we wanted replacing.

Well have a look; there are specific Napoleonic dice in their own dice tins.

Here you go! Based in Australia so shipping might be a bit of a bumer though!

Many thanks, not worried about the shipping costs if I can get what I want.  Thank you all for the input, really appreciate it.
