Hello Burners and Guardmice,

I worked Comicon this weekend promoting Mouse Guard with David Petersen for Archaia. It was a really fun time. During the show, David and I stumbled on an astounding rumor. We heard through the grapevine that Archaia has produced Mouse Guard dice and they're sitting in a warehouse, undispersed. I don't know about you, but I want those dice! In order to get them, I need your help. As you know, Archaia isn't the best at responding to customer service emails. They are however very watchful of their twitter feed. So if you want those MG dice like I want those MG dice, I need you to tweet @Archaia and tell them! Even if you don't have a twitter account, sign up for one and send them a note. It's free, it takes 30 seconds to do and you never get spammed (I love twitter, btw. You can always see what I'm up to by following @burning_luke).

So do you want Mouse Guard dice? Tell the publisher! Tweet at @Archaia! Tweet early, tweet often! We could have MG dice before Christmas!

@Archaia Is it true the rumor about the Mouse Guard Dice will be sold separately? #MouseGuardDice

Keeping it going. Their twitter guy is on vacation this week, but you can see that he's checking the feed. We want the first thing he thinks of on Monday morning to be Mouse Guard dice!

For you, I’ll send a tweet as soon as I find my phone (or get a replacement, as my contract is up).

It is time for another tweet wave.

Try hitting the tweet handle one more time. I think we might be about to shake something loose.

I don't play mouse guard, but would love some better dice for Burning wheel. Are these equivalent to black shade?

Yes. They are snakes (1-3), swords (4-5) and axes (6).

drop some colored enamel into one snake each, and you can use them for BW easily enough...
G: the colored snake is a success
W: the colored snake is a fail
Armor: the colored snake is a 1

Or I could let my players panic when I reach for not mouse guard dice (I rarely use grey shade except for Toby Troll knight to the society of Jesus)

A troll knight working for the Jebbies? That's SCARY! Seems kind of right, too... ;)

Toby Love Jesus. He had troll savant and oafishly charming.
