Aha! The mystery finally revealed!
...and it looks like a blending of Captain Jack's Compass with Dr.Strange's Eye of Agamoto.
Beautiful and well thought out!

Denny asked me to post the instructions here, and I've also updated the first post with the link.

Full instructions here: Roll Arena Instructions

Form the sound of it things are moving at a rapid clip, am I right in assuming that its moving from "Soon" to "very soon"

Also for all those strategy with lots of fiddly figures and counters on the table, where it's certain someone will roll their dice all over the game board and topple everything on it...

This looks much less complex than I had feared! Cool!

Cash ready.

I have to say this is what I'm concerned with as well.

I think it is safe to assume that the dice "bounce" properties of this Arena will be thoroughly tested out before release

Cool! This could be used in pretty much any board game, even just as a tray to roll dice in. My group says that all dice rolls must be on an open portion of the table to be valid (ie, not touching the board, on the board, on cards, etc (partly to prevent game pieces from being moved by flying dice)) so I can see the value in this.

This could very well end the phenomenom wherein we spend half the game under the table looking for dice.

I think something else to look at, the instructions say matt board or the thicker card stock from cereal boxes, but how does it bounce or work with say, foam core? Is it greedy of me to want it now so I can start expirimenting?

Here's another teaser courtesy of our very own SoloSpirit. In fact, he's the man to ask about bouncing dice, since he's beta tested it

Thanks Denny

I have indeed been testing it...rolling those dice to make sure that everything goes fine, and that the ink does not wear off from use until at least a million rolls

Folks you will be happy to know that cardstock with a heavy card or mat board backing gives a small bounce than a nice roll...No mega bouncing over the edge, even with quite enthusiastic throwing

I dont guarantee you will NEVER have a die skip out on you...but its going to be rare, and probably when you are rolling more than one.

I didnt do my test build with foamcore..I think that would just give a bit too thick of a "waist" in the build, and its not really necessary to go that heavy duty An easy way to test to see how foamcore might work...make a 3 walled TLX 6X6 and roll some dice into there

And it's out now!

Wow is that a new record? Shows up on the In the Works counter to released in three days.

Mighty impressive!!!!
Needless to say I'm downloading this now

HUZZAH! It Shall be mine!

Yes! Just snagged it. Now I wanna call in to work tomorrow to build the thing!

What? I didn't say I was actually gonna DO it.

Don't judge me.

Judge you for skipping work to build stuff? You'll get no judgment here man!

Lies, we all know you totally are going to with that statement. Mind you as Denny says, no judgement.

Great Scott you guys can move fast when you want to!

Downloading now.

Wonder if I can have that built and prepare for an All for One session tonight?

Incidentally, and completely off-topic, I am loving the new store design. I consider myself good at web work, but I bow before whoever has done yours.

I did not finish my beta pictures fast enough





Now I certainly am hoping that this sell very well because I would love to see more cards!

drat ding and bugger. denied access to the home printer, now I will need to find another source of which to access world works goodness..

What's with the removable corner tops? What goodies are you planning to release that fits there? An add-on dice tower perhaps?

Yes, Yes, I know - we'll find out "soon"

congratulations on another great release.

cheers

OK, there is something about this that reaches into that place in my body that makes my hand go for my wallet....This is really cool.

It's been a while since I bought something on release day, but this is too darn cool. Not feeling the eyeballs though. Any chance someone wants to kit bash an alternative back to the cards?

Funny, I looked at this when it first came out and thought, "I don't need that"

But now, I'm curiously being pushed to open my wallet...Maybe there is something about the rune alignment.

Bought and downloaded! I definitely know what I'm going to tackle this weekend!

I'm looking more closely at the PDFs now, and I just realized that, with the way the various pies and tabs are designed, a good portion of the white space is "pre-edged" by the thicker brown printed lines. That's a *very* cool thing.

would be nice to have the same images you have for the central arena's part printable on the back of the cards!

Bought. Now to see what different inlays I can make.
