Diceland (tile based game)
Players place hexagonal tiles to form a playing area. They then roll dice to form an army. The dice themselves form the soldiers in the army, and the number rolled is the strength of the soldier. As a result, in smaller games luck plays a large factor and the game can be very one-sided. Larger games tend to be more balanced, though it is not guaranteed.

Diceland (collectible dice game)
Players roll paper cut-out octahedral dice into a combat arena. The dice are then used in the same way as miniatures - they can be moved around the arena and attack other dice.
The original Diceland set was Diceland: Deep White Sea, released in 2002. It was followed in 2003 by three more sets: Diceland: Ogre, Diceland: Space, and Diceland: More Space, and in 2005 with Diceland: Cyburg and Diceland: Dragons. There is also a Diceland set of Button Men. In addition, there are promotional dice; the 2005 summer promo die features characters from the world famous webcomic Penny Arcade.
In 2003, Diceland won the Origins Vanguard Award 2002.
