gamestation has blank dice, however, I didn't find any D30s on there when I looked.

Damage dice!

My plan is to paint each of the faces blue, red, tan, yellow, orange or green. There will be varying amounts of each color, based on the percentage of appearances on the DAC.

I'll have 30 dice, ten for regular damage, 10 for targeting weapons, ten for targeting power. Mixed with Mike Bennett's damage distribution by color from CL Supplement 41, damage is assigned by rolling dice. So it is more random than the DAC, yet about equal disribution.

I could not get the distribution close enough with d20 or less.
