Yesterday I got back from the North American Game Expo, Origins. One of
the dealers was Decipher. Decipher is the license holder for the current
Star Trek roleplaying game and had a demo game you could play. One of the
freebies they were giving away for playing was a set of dice, Klingon dice
with pIqaD numbers on them. They weren't the same as the ones the KLI uses
and I asked about them, and was told by one of the game designers that the
numbers they used were approved and authorized by Paramount. :(
They gave the numbers 1 to 6 as pIqaD on the inside of the front cover of
the demo game book. I'll try and scan this and put it on the web. The
pIqaD symbols are made up of 3 different components. A -, a slightly
angled |, a - and a ( rotated 90 degrees clockwise.
1 is the -, 2 is the angled |, 3 is 1 and 2 overlapping (+), 4 is - with
the rotated (, 5 is the - with the rotated ( under it and 6 is 5 with a -
across it. It'll be easier to see once I scan them, if people are
intrested in seeing them.
