In that report you see GTA using a wooden (thing) to roll his dice into so they don't go everywhere. Does anyone know what its called and who sells it?

Also, what are some of the best looking dice you've found?

Thanks
Dan

They are called "dice trays".

You can get them at TONS of places (google it).

Even amazon carries several models.

Best looking is incredibly subjective.

I get dice that;
1 - are easy to read across the table (high contrast).
2 - match the color scheme of my army.

If you have any other specific question on dice...that might help?

Oh, I have a buddy with one of those dice trays...they are very handy.

best of luck!

Most dice trays sell for $20. You can get a wooden tray at Hobby Lobby for $2.99 and some felt for a quarter and make your own. That's what I did.

I use a wooden high-sided tray at tournaments.

I move my army from table to table in it, and then use it to roll into during the game,

When i'm using my Orks i use 2-3 of them, but then i use a bucket to roll my dice, literally.

I buy my die at http://www.thediceshoponline.com/

Great prices, huge selection. Not sure if you have an equivalent in Canada/USA, but I imagine you would.

They also have something called a Dice Tower. I wouldn't buy one because I love rolling my die, but I can see the point of it.

Oh that dice tower is a cool idea - wouldn't mind trying one out

Ok here is a, possibly trivial question. When you use a box to roll yoru dice in. Where do you put it? I tried it with a dish before but then because it was to the side of the table it was just awkward moving around there everytime you wanted to roll dice.

The dice tower is cool, but be careful in consideration with the number of dice you need to roll for 40K. When rolling 30 or so dice, the tower can be a bit slow.

I've used small trays to roll dice in. It keeps the dice from going everywhere and is small enough so I can position it so my opponent can clearly see my rolls.

How small is small?
