Brief grammatical note: dice is plural; die is singular.

Otherwise, at first glance, it looks like an interesting game.

A couple of questions, though. First, when moving a die, in what order do things happen? I'd assume that the player declares the move, pointing to where the die will move to, and then rolls it and puts it in its new place. It might also be possible to have a spare die on the side, so the player moves the die on the board, then rolls the side one and turns the moved one to match.

Second, how does one get that very cool-looking equipment???
