I would really like to purchase some more dice to play Command and Colours , the dice that came with the boxed set are ok, so I would gladly buy more if that's all there is out there.
Does anyone make better quality dice for Command and Colours ?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated , thank you

Cheers Tom

I sell a lot of blank dice and people make their own with a sharpie. They can use a lot of different colors for factions or nationalities as well.

Blank dice here in the USA are cheaper than they have ever been for 6 sided.

You can find the dice on eBay, which is where I got them. I think the company that makes them is Canadian. When I went to the company, it had an out of stock or unavailable for the dice but they are on eBay.

I ended up buying four bags of dice and they were shipped quickly!

valley games dice If you get the ancient dice, before you use them, BE SURE TO COAT COMPLETELY THE ENTIRE DIE WITH CLEAR GLOSS FINGERNAIL POLISH, let dry completely, then PUT ON A SECOND COAT. I gauruntee that the finish and the ink will not wear off. If you fail to do this the image stamps will fade with use. No major problem, just protect the dice sides with a clear seal.

You can get the indented kind of blank dice similar to what GMT provides from here:

Thanks for all the replies guys. It looks like the wooden Valley Games dice are the more popular way to go although they seem as rare as hens teeth to locate anywhere on the net.
I'll keep searching for them , thankyou kindly for your help

cheers Tom

Valley games are out of stock apparently.
Anyone know of any other sources?
I suspect GMT games might have the dice considering you can get extra decks of cards from them and they do produce the game.
If it's simply blank dice you're after I know Military Simulations have them.
