Great Gamer Dice - Highly Recommended!Jul 01, 2010
Chessex makes great dice sets and this purple set is no exception. We have several of these sets in different colors since each player wants their own for those "life and death" rolls. The set includes:
- One 4 sided (1d4), usually for rolling damage caused by small weapons or minor magic attacks
- One 6 sided (1d6), this is a "normal" die, usually for rolling damage caused by normal weapons
- One 8 sided (1d8), usually for rolling damage cased by larger weapons and more powerful magics
- Two 10 sided (1d10 + "Percentile"), the 1d10 is used like the other dice by itself, but when used with the one marked in "10s" they become "percentile" dice capable of rolling numbers from 01 to 100 (000)
- One 12 sided (1d12), usually used for rolling damaged caused by major attacks
- One 20 sided (1d20), typically the "attack" die used to roll the base number for offensive action
These are good quality and seem to produce random results. For those that need "bulk dice", consider Chessex Dice: Pound of Dice (Pound-O-Dice) Approximately 100 Die.
Highly Recommended!

Excellent die, excellent value. beware the player who wants purpleApr 06, 2010
The following review will be the same for all the differing colors of ChesseX Polyhedral 7-Die Translucent Dice Set.
ChesseX offers eleven (11) different colors of 7-die Polyhedral sets, one of the best selections of gamer dice offered and excellent for each player to have their own distinctive set. I prefer the green, but have a blue set as well. But with so many choices it is easy to pick your favorite or an easy compromise.
I prefer the translucent to solid color die mainly because there is something bout the slightly luminous background of the translucent plastic that sets off the black numbers better, making them easier to read and providing a more pleasant gaming experience.
Accuracy on random number generation is important. I got my undergraduate statistics students to test the ChesseX die with 1,000 throws, and the quality report came back: EXCELLENT. These are die that throw random numbers from their possibility set.
The slightly rounded edges make for clean throws and firm resting stops, although the inherent composition of the plastic makes them bounce pretty easily off a Formica table. These die work better on cloth surfaces.
will use againFeb 03, 2010
I never received any notification of product order recieved or shipping, but order was processed and shipped as soon as they got it - as if I did.
I choose this company for gaming products over their competitors because they didn't charge me seperate shipping for each item I ordered, but allowed entire order to be shipped together during ordering.
I will order again from this business

Fun!Mar 30, 2009
Even if you're not a D&D fan, these dice are wonderful at playing all sorts of games requiring a random element. For example, did you know that for fun, you can play The Price Is Right's Showcase Showdown with the d20 (the 20-sided die)? Just multiply the number by five cents and there you go! And in your bonus "roll", 1 and 3 are your "green sections". And if you're needed a two-digit number fast, just use the two ten-sided dice (2d10). That's why there's that extra "0" there. Anyway, have fun with them; have a nice day and God Bless!
