The Pencils

Every Battle Pencil has a unique distribution of numbers across its three sets — a wide variety of sums, means, standard deviations, minimums and maximums, all balanced to the same baseline of power.

Those combinations give each pencil its own personality. Aggressive characters like Scribbull and Erasaurus run hot with high variance, while a docile Giraffite plays steady and predictable. Some, like Optimistic Prime, only roll prime numbers!

Because each pencil performs differently against every symbol, its strengths and weaknesses shift from battle to battle — room for real strategy and counterplay.

How to Play

Battle Pencils is a battling pencil game between two friends. Mix and match pencils from different sets — even multiple copies of the same one.

1Get Ready

Agree on how many pencils to start with. 3 or 5 is most common, but any number from 1–99 works.

Secretly pick a pencil for the first battle without the other player seeing it.

2Battle!

Roll your pencil at the same time as the other player. House Rule: a roll only counts if the pencils collide!

Read your rolled number (#) that matches the symbol of the other player's pencil. Higher number wins and knocks out the loser!

3Counter

If your pencil won or tied, you must roll it again next battle.

Otherwise, set your knocked-out pencil aside and pick a new one to roll next.

Keep Battling and Countering (repeat Steps 2 & 3) until one player has knocked out all of the other's pencils to win the game!
