Too many variations will drive up the price. Bulk discounts only apply to orders of the same type of dice. So if people would order 150 dice in total it would be better to split it 50/50/25/25 rather than 37/27/30/25/20/11 to keep the price down. |

Grimer are you taking orders on these already? because I am highly interested in the D6's around 20 and 4 of the artillery and scatter dice. |

Not sure what you define as "same type". In other instances such as this choice of colour eg hasn't mattered, only that the logo used is the same on all dice. Obviously depends on manufacturer. So that's basically 4 types of dice there. I'm also interested in the d6 6 side and mis..er..artillery dice and scatter dice. Short question, how many mis..er..artillery dice might I need to use simultaneously? I'm waiting for mah Skaven book and models to arrive from a guy so haven't read up all the random whackyness found in the book. |

Depends how much Skyre and Pestilence you put into your list. if you load up on Weapons teams, Warplightning cannons, Plagueclaw catapults, and Doomwheels you'll find yourself reaching for the artillery dice very very often, I myself keep about 3 of each in my dice bag, and I use reliably about two of each during a game. |

Not yet sorry. As I mentioned right back at the start of the thread I am putting this up currently simply to gauge interest. The plan is that I will leave it up until just after new year then contact the manufacturer and request quotations based on approximate numbers to order. It is a little circular though as the number ordered will determine price and it will require the price coming back before people commit to order. Anyway let me deal with all that. The more people who show an interest the cheaper it will be for everyone so keep those replies coming.
To best of my knowledge currently this manufacturer defines an "item" ordered as one style of dice in one colour, though I will of course check on this. Edited by Grinner, 17th December 2011 - 11:59 PM.

I remember how this was done last time is the organizer showed us what the pricing was for the different numbers ordered and then showed which bracket we were in. What happened was people ordered conservatively at first and then when the price dropped from additional orders they went back and increased their orders further dropping the price. |

I'd like 1 artillery, 1 scatter and 30 of the D6 with just the 6 replaced depending on the cost of shipping to the UK. Has there been any discussion around what colour the dice will be? I think the artillery/scatter should be relatively plain as the symbols are pretty detailed, but I love the idea of the normal D6s being clear green plastic (or maybe mottled green and black solid dice) like a chunk of warpstone!

Last batch, the dice were solid green with black pips - I don't recall that we had the choice of clear green, or mottled? The other choice in the last batch of dice was a kind of bone/ivory, which ended up looking nicer than I expected. |

I would love to grab up at least 18 or so of the d6 and 2 artillery dice. Depending on exactly what the price comes out to be. I thought about working on a design of my own, but these are just brilliant. Keep us updated! Update/edit: I can pretty solidly commit to 1 scatter, 1 artillery, 6 custom 6 sides, and 12 custom 1 sided. Possibly more if the price break gets big enough. Also I don't know where you might be ordering from, but I know chessex has some sexy colors (speckled earth, green-gold, leaf-black-gold etc...) and have their prices on their site. If we order 200+ it's 50% off, which means i'd be willing to potentially double my order and I assume others might share my enthusiasm. 10-25 dice: $1.00 per side 26-99 dice: $0.75 per side 100-199 dice: $0.60 per side 200-499 dice: $0.50 per side 500-999 dice: $0.42 per side 1000+: please ask for quotes P.P.S: The price being $1 a side normally. So a regular box of 36 dice being filled with one artillery ($6), one scatter ($6), six 6 sided ($6) (for dreaded thirteenth) and then the remaining 28 being one dollar would be $38 and shipping or something if we land 200+ orders. I would assume though that the variations would count as separate orders but we can see. Edited by Scar3crow3, 8th January 2012 - 10:54 PM.

I am almost positive the variations count as separate orders. I will post my initial order tomorrow. |
