What do you think?

A. almost certainly needs to reroll his 20-sided die; but is it worth it for him to to go after my 12-sided die? or is the stinger more important?

I say take the 12. That lets him reroll his own f12, and ensures the capture of a higher die. If he takes the 12, he has only a 3/20 chance of keeping the 20, as opposed to a 5/20 chance if he takes the stinger. However, neither of those is very good --- better to start working on how to keep the f12 as a backup plan.
