Custom Fudge Dice update
Did I mention I was doing this?
These are custom Fudge Dice I designed and am having manufactured by Q-Workshop in Poland. They're known for making all kinds of cool-looking dice.
This is a photo of the finished dice. Aren't they pretty?

Q-Workshop sent me this photo this morning… they've got a few more days of casting before the entire order of 300 dice is finished. I just sold another five sets this morning, bringing my pre-orders to just seven sets short of the 75 sets I ordered.
A standard Fudge Die has two plusses, two minuses, and two blanks. These have only one plus and one minus (plus some little symbols in the corners that make each side unique and create the opportunity for alternate uses). This "peaks" the bell-curve more, making the middle values much more likely and the outer values less. Standard 4dF has a 1-in-81 chance of rolling a +4. 4dF.1 (these dice) have a 1-in-1296 chance of rolling a +4. Still possible, but far more rare.
