D20 flails

Silver Dragon Studio makes $50 flails out of novelty outsize D20s. It's the ideal B&D/D&D crossover item!

D20 Flails (via Wonderland)

That weapon will still do a 1d8 damage (Crit 20, x2), but also 2d20 of pure AWESOME!

It´s the perfect weapon to attack a gelatinous cube or a G.W. Bush (Same intelligence, same vulnerabilities).

Amateurs. For the WoW - BDSM crossover they use a real morning star.

Heh. When I first read this, I thought the D_20 was D2O -- deuterium; heavy water.

Braaaains.

Anyone else read that as D20 fail the first time?

Outsize makes a bit more sense.

Cory, I'm assuming you mean *outsize* rather than *outside*. I'm sure these could be used outside, but my guess is that you'd prefer not to have the neighborhood watch you flailing.

Looks slightly more S&M.

I've had one of these for about a year. I'm not sure why. It's truly excellent for, uh, tenderizing my meat.

Uh, yeah. Something like that.

"You'll put your eye out." (20 for 1d20)

Outside d20s, eh. I've always wanted weatherproof dice!

Methinks you meant outsize.

S&M? Skulls and Monsters?

I remember asking some SCA guys why nobody used a flail in their mock battles, and they told me because of the speed and accelerations involved, it was impossible to make a safe dummy flail, even for reinactor play-fighting.

So yeah, 2d20 damage potential...literally ;-)

what would a Moderator Flail have on the end of it?

[#22 posted by Alpinwolf, February 6, 2009 3:21 PM]

This epic B&D&D flail makes me think of LARPers taking the capture of a character to extremes of literalness. Could be fun, could be illegal... Those often coincide.

I'll take two!

Giant D6 flails also.
