<p>Our group uses the dice containers from time to time also, problem is that the most common ones are "large" or a 10'x10' and not real useful in intricate combat. The small 16mm dice made of stone/metal come in a smaller medium sized (5'x5') die container, but $20-$40 is kinda steep for THE container if you have no interest in the fancy dice, lol.</p>delabarre wrote:DoveArrow wrote: OOC, are the elevators hollow?
