I imagine there will be mixed reactions to BlueRing Tabletop’s second Kickstarter. The company was previously called Scalethor, a solo project from the creative.
Why? The bullet dice metal d6 lean heavily into gun fetish, which may not be a good thing. On the other hand, playing an 80s action RPG or a zombie board game, is there more thematic dice? The campaign has been funded and did so quickly, you can back from the pitch page.
These dice resemble 9mm bullets or bullet cases at least. They are die-cast zinc.
As dice that look good, BlueRing Tabletop also have some presentation options. There’s a sliding bullet dice clip and a chamber box display.
Lastly, there’s also a new range of colours for this second generation of bullet dice.
Bullet Dice are the badass Metal alternative to your basic D6, designed to resemble a 9mm bullet made from die-cast zinc. they are perfect for your next board game session whether it’s monopoly or your capping zombies as a gunslinger in your next campaign, the dice chamber also doubles as a handy ammo counter to keep track during combat encounters! Available in sets of 1,2,3,6 or 6 Dice with one of our custom box options.
A single dice with worldwide shipping and access to the add-on system unlocks as a reward for backers at the AU$12 level. That’s about £7.
There are economies of scale; 2 bullet dice are AU$20, and 3 are $30. Above that level, the tiers are limited. 6d6 bullets are $60, and above that, we get dice clip boxes, chamber boxes, and even an ammo crate added.
Irrespective of the backing level, the estimated delivery date is June 2022.
