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.

So, I made a small error in my original sheet yesterday, but I’ve replaced it with the right math. I also upgraded the sheet to show the relative delta in absolute percentages from any given choice to the best choice for that defender. That’s what led me to conclude, basically, that there really is an…
I’m joining +Christopher R. Rice and diverse others to play in a GURPS Supers campaign. Christopher writes about it here. This will be novel for me in a few ways. The first of which is that it’s, by far, the most complicated and high-point-value character I’ve ever played. I’ve also never played Supers with GURPS, though…
Once again, over on the forums there’s a thread. In this case, someone created a repeating crossbow that is re-loaded using a pump-action similar to a shotgun. The design on the thread was a fairly standard design, nothing quite as elaborate as the image to the right. So, what would I make of such a beast?…
This is one of those interesting oddities that shows up in Pyramid from time to time. A truly systemless article that’s useful for any GM in any system, as well as being a trove of information to be mined I’m going to give away the ending, and note that this was far and away my…
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. 7.62x39mm M43 The 7.62x39mm cartridge cleared all of the major hurdles to design and mass production in 1947, and remains one of the most…
“Slicing the Pie” is a term for moving around a corner with a ready firearm, so as not to get plugged by enemies lurking too close. It exposes only a small amount of potential firing line at a time, in order to reduce the burden on the slicer’s threat perception. It is slow, requires some…

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!
