====Current Records==== Here is a chart summarizing the best/smallest sets known for various player counts. Entries in red are known to be the best (lowest) possible values achievable (generally through exhaustive computer search). ^ Players ^ Smallest LCM (all dice same size)^ Fewest Total Sides ^ Smallest Largest Die ^ Fewest Sides ("Nice"* Set) ^ | 2 | 2 (2d2) | 3 (aba) | 2 (aba) |8 (2d4) | | 3 | 6 (3d6)\\ R.

Meyer | Impossible | * A "nice" set comprises dice that are all isohedral shapes that are not lenses or rolling logs ("nice" is definitely subjective, since 2//n//-lens-shaped dice with small //n// values are definitely functional and pleasing enough for some folks' tastes). Also, a d2 (a coin) is not considered "nice", but that is purely the opinion of this author (Eric). "Nice" side counts, therefore, are the following: 4, 6, 8, 12, 20, 24, 30, 48, 60, and 120.
