Default A d100 die?

The only "true" d100 that I know of are the Zocchihedron and the Zocchihedron II (which apparently had better stopping).

I know they aren't exactly the best thing to use but I figured it could be that one die where I need a good roll..Like when the GM uses the ginormous d20 to see if the hit is a true critical...or you use the tiny d20 for those games where rolling smaller is better...

So, does anyone know where to buy the Zocchihedron II ? So far the online stores I have looked at have them as out of stock...

Have you seen the large, transparent d10 which contains a smaller d10? When rolled, you get the 01 - 00 result range, and you only have one die to keep track of...

Also eliminates the question of which die is which digit.

Sorry I don't know where to find the Zocchihedron II...

Good luck!

No, I have not seen a d10 inside of a d10 before. I have seen d6 that way. I will take a look at that d10. Never hurts to have multiple special dice for a special occasion.

The old d100 was like a golf ball and rolled for ever. Not to mention the difficulty of reading the result. It's a great addition for a dice aficionado, but it's practical application is slim. Stick with two d10s of different color. I haven't bought dice in years, so I haven't seen the two-in-one die yet. Sounds cool, but I have sworn-off dice buying as my wife won't support multiple collecting habits

I want one. Where can I buy it? Somewhere online?

Well, did a little digging online, and found this online to prove they actually exist...

RPG Shop: Double d10

Although they claim that they're out of print on that site, Google is a lovely thing when you enter the phrase "double d10" as a search term...

Enjoy!

Thanks, GerallKahla. I did find a link to the d100 die and they are out of stock. I did contact them and they said they would have a large Gamescience shipment delivered in a week or so.

Unfortunately, I did not see a double d10 on their site. Hopefully that will be in their shipment, also.

eBay always has dice for sale. Check it out and I'm sure you'll find it.

Here's a place, four or five links down on the Google search, which has multiple colors in stock and ready to go...

Price for one of these 'dual' dice? $1.00 USD...

dicepool.com

Enjoy --
