Dice sorter for Crom
« on: 28 May 2014, 12:42:10 AM »
Something I noticed when playing Crom was that the dice tended to migrate from box to box on a flat piece of paper. We played around with a few ideas to make the dice more stable for my convention game and I ended up with a laser cut dice rack that worked very well.


Here is the bare wood after cutting.


I printed inserts with each characters stat card and markers for Move, Combat and Special columns. I sprayed it a matte black and taped the front to the back.
I'm looking at more permanent closure solutions that may have me covering the whole thing in a light leather with a flap to hold it closed.


Here it is held at an angle with dice. It was pretty stable and could be moved around normally without losing dice.

What do you think?

This is cool! I made something similar from thick cardboard for keeping track of character stats and inventory for All Things Zombie.







Edit: Now that I think about it, I also made a PSD template for character cards for CROM!. PM me if you would like to have the layered file.



(Sorry to hijack your thread like this ;) )

Excellent work all round. I was going to make dice trays originally but there was always another figure or bit of scenery that took precedence :)

Very nice indeed. I now track dice in 'Crom' on a sheet of paper, which isn't nearly so pretty.
