Apropos of Nothing: Have You Seen These Dice?
A bit ago, I was gifted with a Ziploc bag full of dice. I have no idea from what game they come.
Help?
And the commenters have spoken: These be Dragon Dice.

Telescopic Vision As part of a discussion of some rules involving guns, aiming, and accuracy, +Christopher R. Rice brought my attention to the rules for Telescopic Vision (p. B92). Holy Gawd, it is awesome. Not only does each level cancel out range penalties for normal Vision rolls, but it has double effect if you take Aim. Not…
The Reloading Press is an at-least-weekly feature here on Gaming Ballistic for 2016. Each week it looks at some interesting real-world cartridges and presents them with hopefully-useful information in GURPS Format. 6.8x43mm SPC The 6.8x43mm SPC cartridge was introduced as an attempt to increase the lethality of the M16 and (especially) M4 pattern rifles. The…
A bit of post-Christmas fun, occasioned by a list of Marvel movies ranked in some sort of order that seemed to me to bear no resemblance to anything I’d ever write down. That’s cool – taste and enjoyment are subjective. Still, here’s how I’d order the movies, from least favorite to most. Again: highly subjective,…
OK, gearing up to make The Table. I think I’ll be going with the following columns. Class – self explanatory, but this table won’t deal with multiclassing Race/Specialty notes – things like “half-elf pirate” or “Mountain Dwarf Battlemaster” HP (Effective HP) – I think I might note things like 71 HP (+71 HP due to…
Thursday is GURPSDay. We’re entering the last week or so of the Dungeon Fantasy Kickstarter. It fully funded during Day 16, about four days ago, and is still going strong. It looks to be pushing to anywhere from $135,000-165,000, but that’s not the full story, because ANY GURPS purchases count towards the stretch goals. One…
Over on the forums, Icelander asked if anyone had ever converted slings to a system like the one I used to do The Deadly Spring: Has anyone had any luck modelling slings in a slightly more plausible manner than the current one?Can one plug them into Douglas Cole’s The Deadly Spring in any way? …

Pretty sure you've got yourself a bag of Dragon Dice. It was an old collectable D&D dice game from TSR back when collectables games were just starting out. I myself have never tried them.
You might not believe this, but they didn't really take off.
Yes, they look like Dragon Dice to me too. Among their problems was that you could only buy random packs, and while people fell for this with Magic: The RPG Killer they didn't seem to be prepared to put up with it for something as bulky as dice, especially when you pretty much needed a themed force to get anywhere.
Glad to hear from fans of this tile pattern!
