Revisiting Character Boards - Oh my!

Dice vs Bars comparison-256.png

As I sit here prepping files for manufacture, I am looking at the character boards that I *thought* were completed over a month ago and think to myself "what if I change those statistics bars to dice?".

What have I done? lol!

What do you prefer? Bars, 3D Dice or Flat dice?

Having no idea what any of

Having no idea what any of these mean, aesthetically speaking, I like the bars best. I do think that the notches should separated just slightly too.

Thank you. Aesthetics is what I'm looking for.

I was thinking that myself about the space between the bars being larger.

It's been quite a busy topic on TheBoardgameGroup facebook group. At first it was 100% responding "dice" but now the results are coming in mixed (with some people suggesting just using a number instead).

I quite like the bars (the original idea was something like a digital gauge but things changed since then while retaining the rough concept) because I feel they are cleaner and detract less from the rest of the board.

I like the idea of Dice representing the number of dice to roll as well.

Thus my quandry.
