How many of you have heard the new technology coming out of Microsoft called Microsoft surface?
Here is a Dungeons and Dragons demo they did on it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXsFNPO_gUM
Now Imagine applying this technology to dragon dice. Is it possible? How cool would it be to recognize the dice when you roll them!
Just something to toss out there, I think the table is set at a price of $14,000 right now though >.< |

Yup, heard about that technology a few years ago when it was first annouced. It would be nice to be able to do something, but no one that plays our game has one of those devices so it'll have to wait until someone wins the lottery and decides to invest it all in SFR  _________________ Multiplayer Champion Gencon11/Battlefest Champion(tied) GenCon10/World Champion GenCon07/National Champion Origins05/Intermediate Champion GenCon02/Novice Champion Origins99 |
