Board Game Arena

Thanks for the insight.

I, personally, enjoy this format for the Arena the most, but I haven't been guru for a while now so I couldn't vote for it.
I didn't even participate in the last season.

Don't listen to users: some users may stop playing the game. Don't listen to the owner: they may pull out the game from BGA and then all users will stop playing the game. Which one would you choose? This^ On the matter of the card: I've played over 2300 games of Space Base on BGA and I think I lost...

I hate the new rule.
Either change it back to what it was before (link to game screen) or at least if you start a game by default keep the prefered settings.

I disagree, playing without lightspeed takes away so much player agency at the start of the game. Agreed. Without lightspeed, the beginning of the game often leaves me feeling powerless. Sometimes you get a horrible opening hand in LS but then there’s the challenge of deciding whether to try it wit...

If I roll 2 dice, the probability that I'll see at least one 3 is 11/36: there are 11 possible outcomes with at least one 3 out of the 36 possible (and equally probable) rolls. The "average number of 3s" is, however, is 12/36 = 1/3 Agreed. I will use 12/36, since you can activate sector 3...

https://snipboard.io/gGltSu.jpg I color coded the table, so it would be more evident where each possibility is considered. So, continuing the example of the 5-3 roll (criteria 27), I do the following: 1. Increment the numerator for all three (3, 5, 8) in their respective formulas 2. Consider these ...

Ignore the sums for a moment, and suppose you always take individual dice. The probabilities for all numbers should obviously all be equal, but they should not add up to 100%, because they're not exclusive. I'm not sure I follow. If we ignore the sum, then the probability of each die appearing is 1...

https://snipboard.io/yFJInm.jpg Let's take the 3 for example: Chances in 2-dice-games are 5.6% and are calculated as 2/36. Why? Because there are only 2 scenarios where you can roll a three in those games (1-2 and 2-1). However, in Spacebase you activate sector three even if you (or an opponent) ro...

1. What is "Sum of Dice + Individual dice" This refers to the columns in the possibilities matrix I considered. Agreed, the choice is not random. But it also does not inflence other players, so if one rolls a 5 and a 2, a player can select 7, and another can choose 5 and 2, so all 3 (2,5 a...

https://snipboard.io/jQu42t.jpg I have attached an image showing the actual probabilities for SpaceBase. If you can't see it, tell me what I did wrong and I'll upload it again :lol: First clarification: The probabilities Solarman9 is talking about are for 2-dice-games where your only choice is to u...
