"You are correct. If you search my database for color style Two-Tone you can see other attempts, but nothing like the Halfsies dice."

Your dice look very nice, and with a week to go it might be too late - but these sets are clearly designed with Roleplayers in mind. Wargamers tend to use many of one kind of dice, whether that be D6 (the most common) or D10s.

I'm not sure if it's feasible or not for you to offer wargamer-oriented sets, but if you're able to do so, it would probably serve you well (or it might be a bit late?)

all the best!

Thank you Azazelx, for the compliments.

As for the d6/d10 set idea. We've had a lot of requests for that during this campaign, put it to a backer vote, and decided to stick with what we have for now to keep this campaign what it set out to be, but also run a new campaign in a few months for d6 & d10 sets. So it's coming! : )

My only question there is, with the d10 sets, would you say you prefer all d10 single digits, or would some %tile be of use?

John

For most wargamers and wargames, regular D10s. Of course, there's always the occasional use for percentile, but the same is also true for D4/8/12/etc - so having "regular" sets as you're offering here alongside would probably cover that.

Another format to consider for role-players is an extended set. Instead of the one of each box, have 3d6 and the % d10.

I don’t know if they still do this, but when I was into CCGs, some people used oversized d20s to keep track of life points. I think they were numbered differently (countdowns) so it was easy to shift to the next number.

Nice looking dice, best of luck.

That's a great suggestion. Thanks also for the compliment. : )
