 Great Gamer Dice - Highly Recommended! Jul 03, 2010
Chessex makes great dice sets and this green 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!

Some scratches, but still a good value! Apr 26, 2010
There were some small scratched on my d4, and some paint errors on my d12 and d20, but other than that, these are beautiful dice. Defiantly worth the $5.80-ish I paid for them. A perfect set for beginners!
 2nd Rate Dice Apr 25, 2010
These dice are painted quite poorly. The edges of the numbers have rough edges painted in rather than clear, straight edges. There is also lines of paint on some of the edges of the dice, where paint shouldn't be. I was able to scratch the excess paint off, but I can't fix the numbers.
The d4 came with three immediately noticable scratches on one face. It also has a small bubble of air inside it.
These dice are completely functional, but I would suggest spending a couple of dollars more and buying them from a different source. You'll likely be spending a lot of time with your dice so you might as well have a set you're proud of.
They are as good as dice can be Apr 06, 2010
No rough edges, the dice were balanced, the numbers were readable, the translucent-ness of the dice make them look nice, what more can I say?
Excellent die, excellent value. Apr 06, 2010
Excellent die, excellent value.
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.
