Eh. That'd be a pain to read, most of the time.

My vote is for some combination of red and black dice for shadow characters.

My thoughts are to use them for the bonus dice given on Battle skill tests before a fight (plus prior to encounters and journeys) - keeping track of the bonus dice over the whole of the period will be easier when they are a different colour.

Ooh. That's a great idea!

That is what we did this weekend using the dice sets I made previously. It worked well.

Had a friend pick me up a pack of these at GenCon and I must say, they're quite nice! I was skeptical at first but now I'm eager to see them in some other 'flavors'.

I just got these Green dice and I must say I didn't care for them when they were first released but they are really awesome! The texture just feels different, kind of more matte. I don't know how to describe. I loved it! Great job!

Yeah, I'm pretty happy. I generally use them either as bonus dice, or recently I've been using the Q-Workshop dice as bonus dice (I like showing them off) and then keeping the green dice as Loremaster dice.

I'm with Earendil on this. Now if there was a Dark "Mirkwood" Green set with white font I'd be buying! I'm very happy with the bone coloured sets that I have

It would be nice to have thematic sets - Mirkwood Green, Erebor Red or Mordor Black etc. Same wonderful font and style, just different coloured dice and text.

The green is very green, I have a set, but looks better in real life than it does on screen. Still, I would have gone for a green less eye-popping.

Now if we could get a set of black dice with flame orange ink that would be sweet. I know, black and red is traditional, but flame orange gives better contrast.
