Custom Dices from Chessex
Hey! First of all I just submit suggestion and I will not personally organize this due lack of time, but if someone would be interested to organize this out then by all means
I decided to join for group order for dices in Khemri forum http://z4.invisionfree.com/Khemri/index ... opic=15630 and http://z4.invisionfree.com/Khemri/index ... opic=15631
It got me thinking if ulthuan would be interested to have some custom made with phoenix symbol as 1 or something else

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
I would love this, although bear in mind customers dice are pretty expensive, if you buy in bulk you're usually looking at £1 per dice.
Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
If I understood correctly 500+ dices would be about 0,42 cent per dice. not too bad imo

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
I ran a purchase for a bunch of people here on Ulthuan back in late 2012. It wasn't terribly difficult once we got the image we wanted. It also wasn't that much if I recall correctly.

I've also done this. Chessex is easy to work with and deliver on time.

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
it depends a bit on the price of course. But I would definitely be interested in some of those red ones Teledor posted above. I didn't grab any last time round, but they look lovely.

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
Count me in if this goes ahead, always looking for more custom/unusual dice to add to my collection.
Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
I've always ordered dice from Cheesex and have a bunch of certain armies that I own.
Let me hit you guys up again once I get home with some pictures.
Keep in mind that the extremely cold weather on the east coast right now is causing some of their dice to crack.
Case in point:

Don't worry though, they're going to send me replacements and hand-check them before it leaves to make sure everything is OK.
Joe, the guy who handles my orders (and has been since 2006), is very good and will take care of you np.

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
If it's not a difficult process to figure out. Yea, I'm down as well.
Check out my High Elves R3K Plog! It's super picture heavy though... You've been warned..
Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
This seems promising. Would there be any organizer to do this? As I said I only submitted the idea as it was done in Khemri forum and though it might be useful for other ppl too

Isn't it normally custom to put the image n the 6? It can get very confusing to have some dice that are images for 6's and other s for 1's. I am sure I have heard podcasts complaining about that before.
Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
Usually it's just on the 6. Also putting a second image on the dice increases the cost per dice significantly, if I recall correctly.

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
I would only look into getting the symbol on the "6".

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
If you can come up with some sort of sunken island image that'll work I might change my mind and get some.
Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
I would definintely be up for it!
Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
Depends on the price but if its right I could be in. Blue dice with pheonixes would look great

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
I'm definitely down to pay for some of these. Please let me know if it's happening I'm happy to PayPal whoever..
Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
Does anyone have any extra they'd be willing to sell?

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
So I don't want any of these dice and am not volunteering but I thought it worth mentioning to all of you saying 'I'm in' that there is currently no one actually organizing this. Someone needs to step up for this to actually go anywhere...

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
I would be keen on purchasing dice, but would prefer some nice purple ones. Failing that, I suppose blue will do
Also, if you want any help with doing stuff, organising, writing letters, making victoria sponges etc etc Im your woman.

Re: Custom Dices from Chessex
Just random curiosity and testing waters.
Does everyone like the previous order design or are there any new ideas in mind?
Secondly, anyone here want to put those idea on paper and post something up?
If something comes up, I may be able to take on the task of ordering and distributing.
I have an order of 250 dice coming in from them with my gaming club, I personally didn't order them, but the process sounds pretty simple.
Lastly, not exactly sure how much it'll cost to ship out afterwards to everyone, but if logos and ideas come up, I'll be happy to look into packaging and shipping prices from where I live.

I like the previous design and would be interested in making an order with those designs. I also was thinking about having some High magic dice made up using the high magic symbol for the number 6, I do have the design ready for this as well.ArcaneSnow wrote:Just random curiosity and testing waters.
