I agree, Earendil. They sure do look cool - too bad so many sets are so hard to read. But I have the Classic Elven dice, and they have only the relevant numbers on them, so they're quite readable. I vote for the Classic style!

They should be ok for a roleplaying game but I know they were not exactly a big hit in the warmachine community because they were hard to read and at tournaments that is a timed game so losing time argueing over a roll is not good. I hope they go for something easily readable but purdy at the same time.

Oh heck yes, gimme a website to order ":D

***ticks in Tease skill once again***

Uh, I know some who will want them, but I find my one pair of Q-Workshop dice all too hard to read. Excessive ornatenes impedes play. If you can cure them of that, sure...

Purveyors of excessively ornately decorated gaming polyhedrals.

Absolutely. I had this very thought many times.

Regardless of what some folks think others will gleefully embrace the fantastical curliques of Q-Workshop dice. I have a player who, in my Call of Cthulhu game, insists on using his arabesque illustrated glow-in-the-dark special Q-Workshop Cthulhu dice even though we play in either full daylight or under fluorescent illumination and he can never see them fluorescing.

They not look very readable... :/
