    What kind of dice are we using for those unrest rolls? A 4 sided, 6 sided or an eight? Jeez, I thought I would never mention a 4 sided or 8 sided die in conversation for the rest of my life span. That was a very long time ago.

    I have a 100 sided sitting around somewhere... perhaps I'll use that.

    Having lived in dorms and studio apartments for the past few years, I gave up trying to find enough room to properly roll dice. So, I switched to using RNG's for my boardgames.

    A 100 and I thought 20 sided was big enough for %. That would need a lot of rolling room. I also forgot the good old 12 sided.

    The RNG's is interesting but it takes away the ole wrist action for those crucial lifesaving moments.

    I bought the d100 for novelty purposes only when I was a kid, since it's a pain in the butt to use. It is almost spherical, which means it take a long time to stop rolling. Even then, it's very difficult to figure out what number is actually facing upwards. It's easier to use 5d20.

    Ha! yes, very good Northnovas. If I roll them it's somehow entirely my fault I missed that saving throw. Clicking a mouse, I have a lot else to blame -- the mouse, the computer, the internet, Bill Gates...
