But Wyrmwood’s logos are well-suited to both the Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder ethos. On any other vendor’s products these little branded flourishes would be a bit much. Also, the interior wells come with two layers of custom-cut foam so that you can adjust them to fit even larger, casino-style or “spindown” dice used for playing Magic: The Gathering. Like all of the company’s products, it’s an absolute pleasure to handle. The sample that Wyrmwood provided is perfectly squared, and hand-oiled and waxed. What makes this one special is the craftsmanship that goes into it. We’ve written about them before here on Polygon. There’s also a fourth generously proportioned cutout for a miniature, large enough for even 32 mm minis with oversized weapons or exotic poses.Ī dice vault isn’t anything new.

Inside are three cutouts, each one made to fit a full set of seven polyhedral dice. Charlie Hall/PolygonĪt the core of the Arsenal is a dice vault secured by eight neodymium magnets.
Of all the sets I’ve seen at Gen Con and PAX, Wyrmwood’s are the most pleasing to the touch. So what is it? Wyrmwood uses hand-rubbed oils and waxes to finish its products. It’s called The Wyrmwood Adventurer’s Arsenal, and it’s already closing in on the quarter-million mark. The company’s latest project, however, may be its finest - and most affordable - product yet. You may have heard about its dice towers, which raised nearly nearly $250,000 on Kickstarter in 2015. While one of Wyrmwood’s handmade tables start s at $5,000, the firm is mostly known for its broad range of smaller products. If that name rings a bell, it’s because the company has exploded into the marketplace with a new line of extravagant gaming tables that are just the thing to fill the void left by the closure of Geek Chic. The beautiful art, the world, the characters-they'd be worth reading even if it never went anywhere at all.The market for tabletop gaming gear has heated up over the last few years, and one of the standout manufacturer’s is New England-based Wyrmwood. It's hard to describe the plot without giving things away, since it sort of creeps up on you subtly (this is book one of a planned four-book series), but the plot isn't really important. Wherever Molly and Griffen go, they find friends, as well as occasionally enemies. Same-sex and poly relationships are easily accepted (one character refers casually to having two husbands). Molly and Griffen are married, and all the people they have sex with tend to think that they're just being borrowed from each other, but the only odd thing there is that they don't actually have sex with each other.

The sci-fi elements are at the same time subtle and right there in your face Molly and Griffen take everything for granted, since it's the world they grew up in, but there are advanced communications/internet devices, and hopping from planet to planet, and ways to download information into your head.
The main characters are Molly and Griffen, a pair of interplanetary itinerant factory workers.
There's a glossary in the back! Plus, all the "asides" (by other artists), most of which I hadn't read.
The book is (somewhat to my surprise) even better than the webcomic it's beautifully designed, the pages are big and colorful, and it's got all this great extra stuff. How do I review this book? I've been a fan of the webcomic for years.
