Years ago I staind some dice with a permanent marker. I just colored them all blue and then washed off what I could. Id say Ive had them for a good 10 years and they still have a blue tint to them. Cheap and easy

I usually just count up all my dice at the end of a game, also after rolling I put my dice back in my little dice pool on my side of the table.

I like the idea of dying the die another color. it cant be called weighting dice and if I do it right it will stand out. Ya, for some reason now one of my friends has three scatter dice....

How about using a dice tray?

Something like the lid of a box to roll your dice in. They stay contained and you can easily see if someone picks up your dice.

repeatedly sneeze on them infront of other players. Hell.. do it to their dice too and you can add to your collection without having to pay anything in many cases.

lol.

Just build in some sort of device that will electrify anyone who touches the die that hasnt got your genetic code ala Judge Dread.

Life isn't about dice, it's about love and having fun.

Or you can view it from other side of the spectrum.

Those who will be willing to steal dice will steal other stuff as well.

In life, there are principles.

It's a good habit to take your dice back as soon as you roll them. I haven't lost mine yet, but I'm fairly certain I will eventually.

If they steal your stuff, break their legs.
A dice is a dice dude, have some sense of scale.

i just keep my dice close. if i loan it out for whatever reason i make sure i get it back. keep tabs on it, and make sure you collect what you came with.

i mean... you do that for your models right? or do you randomly loose marines or other models?

heh. snuggling cute kittys are cute.

My dice stay in a pile on my side of the board. If I roll a die then it returns to the pile. Said pile gets picked up at the end and if I'm missing any I check the random die and the scatter die first and make sure I have those.
