Dice play a significant role in many tabletop hobbies, including miniature wargaming, collectible card games (TCGs), and role-playing games (RPGs). In miniature wargaming, dice are often used to determine the outcome of combat, movement, and other game mechanics. In TCGs, players use dice to keep track of their life points or to randomly determine certain effects of their cards. In RPGs, dice are used to determine the success or failure of character actions, and often have specific roles in different game systems, such as determining damage or resolving skill checks. Dice also serve as a visual representation of chance and uncertainty in these hobbies, adding an element of randomness and excitement to gameplay. Overall, dice are an essential tool in many tabletop hobbies, adding an element of chance and excitement to gameplay while also providing a way to resolve complex mechanics and actions.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
1. Do tabletop games typically require dice?
Many tabletop games do require dice, but not all of them. Dice are often used in games to add an element of randomness and chance to the game, which can make it more exciting and unpredictable.
However, some tabletop games don't use dice at all, or use alternative methods of determining outcomes. For example, in the game of chess, there are no dice involved - the outcome of each move is determined solely by the player's strategy and the movements of the pieces. Similarly, card games like poker and bridge use decks of cards to determine the outcome of each hand.
So while dice are a common component of many tabletop games, they are not a necessary requirement for all of them.

2. What kind of dice are required for Warhammer?
Warhammer is a tabletop wargame that uses a variety of polyhedral dice with different numbers of sides (also known as "polyhedrons" or "d polyhedral dice") to determine the outcome of various actions in the game.
The specific types of dice required for Warhammer can vary depending on the edition of the game and the army or faction being played. However, the most common types of dice used in Warhammer include:
1.Six-sided dice (d6): These are the most common type of dice used in the game and are used for various purposes, such as determining the number of attacks a unit can make or the result of a morale test.
2.Eight-sided dice (d8): These are used for leadership tests and other similar rolls.
3.Ten-sided dice (d10): These are used for armor saves and other rolls where a higher number is beneficial.
4.Twelve-sided dice (d12): These are used for some special abilities and spells.
5.Twenty-sided dice (d20): These are used for some key rolls, such as determining the outcome of an initiative test.
It's important to note that not all of these types of dice may be required for every game of Warhammer, and some armies or factions may require additional or specialized dice. It's best to consult the rulebook for the specific edition and army being played to determine which dice are needed.

3. What kind of dice are required for D&D?
Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) is a tabletop role-playing game that uses a variety of polyhedral dice with different numbers of sides (also known as "polyhedrons" or "d polyhedral dice") to determine the outcome of various actions in the game.
The specific types of dice required for D&D depend on the edition of the game and the character being played, but the most common types of dice used in D&D are:
1.Four-sided dice (d4): These are used for determining small amounts of damage or other minor rolls.
2.Six-sided dice (d6): These are the most common type of dice used in the game and are used for various purposes, such as determining the number of attacks a character can make or the result of a skill check.
3.Eight-sided dice (d8): These are used for determining larger amounts of damage or other rolls where a higher number is beneficial.
4.Ten-sided dice (d10): These are used for determining damage for some weapons or spells, as well as other rolls where a higher number is beneficial.
5.Twelve-sided dice (d12): These are used for determining damage for some weapons or spells, as well as other rolls where a higher number is beneficial.
6.Twenty-sided dice (d20): These are used for some key rolls, such as determining the outcome of an attack or the success of a spell.
In addition, there are other types of dice that are occasionally used in D&D, such as percentile dice (d100) which are used for determining probabilities, and specialized dice such as the eight-sided dice with double digits (d8 with numbers 10, 20, 30, etc.) used for determining hit points of certain monsters in some editions of the game.
Overall, the types of dice required for D&D will vary depending on the situation, but having a set of polyhedral dice that includes d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, and d20 will generally be sufficient for most games.
