I am a newbie DM, and haven't hosted a game yet, but am curious (after reading stuff on the web for past couple weeks), why did early editions rely on treasure to get experience points? Later editions don't reward nearly as much treasure right? Is it because you were to avoid fighting with...

Heads or Tails? :)

I ordered some blank white dice from Amazon (50 of them for around $12). Lightly sanded each side rubbing dice on sandpaper on flat surface. Then cleaned off, washed, rinsed etc. Printed out the artwork (usually on my color printer but this one was black and white), then I covered with...
