Topic: Fear The Con
The folks at Gamer Ground, a game store not a coffee bar for gamers, will be at Fear The Con. Casey, Gamer Ground co-owner, has assured me that they will have Fudge dice on hand at the con.
I am so excited!
Fudge dice are used in games employing the FATE system, such as Spirit of the Century. These dice are six-sided, but they are not numbered one-to-six. Rather, they are labeled with "+" and "-" and blanks. The typical roll for any action with Fudge dice is 4d6 (or 4dF). This provides a range of results from -4 to +4 or "sub-Terrible" to "trans-Superb" in Fudge terms.
I can't find the darn things here in DFW and can't locate anybody who sells them online that doesn't charge a ridiculous amount of shipping.
