 <title>WotC looks for success in competitive gaming market</title>
 <link>http://rpgherald.com/story/wotc_looks_for_success_in_competitive_gaming_market</link>
 <description> &lt;p&gt;The company responsible for marketing successes like Dungeons &amp;amp; Dragons and Magic The Gathering is betting its newest game will develop the same cult-like following.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To make sure Dreamblade, a science-fiction game, hits it big with players, Wizards of the Coast Inc. is backing the game&#039;s release with a half-million dollar tournament circuit. That&#039;s on top of the $2 million the Renton, Wash.-based company has spent to develop and market the game that debuts Thursday at a science fiction convention in Indianapolis.&lt;/p&gt;

Elements: Game Board, Rulebook.&lt;br /&gt;
You Need: Pawns for every player, two 6-sided Dice&lt;a href=&quot;glossary#term45&quot; title=&quot;dice: Dice in RPGs are a little different than you&amp;#039;re used to. Because the variables used in RPGs are often 1 out of 8, 1 out of 12, or some other odd number, six-sided dice won&amp;#039;t cover all situations. Most RPGs use dice with many different sides on them under different situations.

To clearly indicate which die to use, gamers have developed a shorthand method to refer to each type . . . the letter &amp;quot;d&amp;quot; followed by the number of sides the dice has. Your standard die found in any Monopoly box, for example, is called a d6. The most common dice are d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, and d20. Unusual dice that are either rarely used or just bought because they&amp;#039;re &amp;quot;cool&amp;quot; include the d30 and the golf ball sized d100. 

Your choice of game will determine which dice you need.&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;modules/glossary/glossary.gif&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, Counters. &lt;/p&gt;
