Got a question? Want a copy of our latest catalogue? Want an invite to our KitShop Dropbox folder? Sorry, no direct email link. Too much spam. Simply type "battleschool" as one word, followed by the @ symbol, then "rogers" (the service provider) followed by dot com to complete the email address.
The term "Baby" when applied to our BattleDice is shorthand for the smallest dice we sell. The Big Baby Sniper die, for example, is 12.5mm (1/2"). We also have a 14mm (9/16") Sniper-Effects die, which includes information regarding the effects of a Sniper attack. The "big daddy" of the Sniper dice is our 16mm (5/8") Wound-Severity and Sniper-Effects die, which is a dual-purpose die.
Essentially, the larger the die, the more room it has for conveying information, especially in the form of play aids.
Bottom line is that "baby" has no bearing on the quality of a die.
if I buy 6 dice can I order 5 pink and one blue as I play a game that requires 5 of one color and one of another. Do the dice only come in sets of 2 so that I will have to buy 8?
There are options to purchase DYO (design-your-own) packs, including six packs, on our Backgammon Dice page (http://asl-battleschool.blogspot.ca/p/backgammon-dice.html).
Alternatively, you may create a custom "Combat Six-Pack." Scroll down toward the bottom of the same page. Select "pink" as your "team colour" and dark-blue (or light-blue) as your sixth die.
Good day, just entered my first tournament in over 24 years. I won a KitShop Cash Certificate (bewildered by all the Dice I want lol). I want to say Thank you for the prizes you donated. I will be emailing you with a list of queries and shopping list. I just have to become creative on placing the order with my wife around lol.
What is meant by "Baby dice"?
ReplyDeleteThanks for posing the question David.

Hello
ReplyDeleteI want to buy 14mm dice, but I couldn't find a buy button or similar method. How can I buy?
