I won a prototype blue dragonzealot at GenCon last year. It has green printing.



I am using it in my army at the moment, but am curious, how many "Chuck Pint Points" is this die worth?

[cliffwiggs]

That is a very subjective question.

That die is not quite like any other dice that we have produced.

Most of the dice we've produced are readily available and they have points based on their rarity and the cost of the product. i.e. 1 in 40 at $7.95 per box.

Some dice are true prototypes where less than 4 and usually only 1 exist.

These dice are normal Zealots, they just have a special ink color. What makes them unique is that you can't purchase one. You have to win it (or something similar). So the value is very subjective. They aren't as rare as a prototype but more useful as they can actually be played with.

i would rate it pretty high. as cliff said the die is only available at cons. I would rate by averaging the rares. (average does not include the UF). around 120cp. But that's my personal opinion. now i would also so say that if you had all five that value as a set would would be much better. i would value the set at around 1100 cp. because you would have to win at five cons to get them. thats three forgecons and two gencons. inconceivable!

Thanks everyone for the info.

I'm not going to trade it, it is too useful in my current army and to be honest, 100 points is nothing special.

I really have a problem with the existing points system. I understand that it is pure math based on die production numbers. Who could argue with that?

But that is purely a Supply calculation. What about Demand?

I guess there isn't a big enough DD trade market to derive valid demand patterns?

Shoe: the DDAssist program has a lot of what you are describing already in it. I've got the source code for it (It was written by Bruce Parrello about 15 years ago). If you want it, let me know.
