Default Three sided Dice..

Geo, I remember a set of dice I had with a three sided die.
It was a triangular tube with the rounded ends. (like the 4 sided die, the face sitting on the table/floor was the one that counted.)
fyi: it was not much bigger than the D6 cube die. just about 1x1x1.5.
I can draw you a pic if you would like.

Cheers!

P.S. I also seem to remember that my old 'Risk' game with the wooden pieces had some short triangular sticks for the armies.
One of those could easily be made into a three sided die.

Nuf said. Cheers again.

..connect the dots to make triangular tabs on the ends.
cut out the shape, then fold along the dash'd lines.
tape the edges and voila.
