Electronic Dice and cards

[Randwulf]

They hate me…

Electronic dice just hate me… 3 die against a tank I roll all inf. 4 die against in inf and I roll all 4 tanks.
Over and over… Aaaahhhhh I am cursed. Half a game, first 30 dice I rolled did not hit anything !!! I was being chewed up and spit out, then stomped on and… well… ugh And don’t even get me started on the cards. Too late. Why do I start a game with 3 right cards when I don’t even have a unit on the right side. Draw a card, play that card, draw another card, hope to play that card.
Probe, probe, probe… could I at least get a recon card? NOooooo…..


Damn I love this game.

Very interesting and well articulated rant: 10/10

[Randwulf]

Really ??? A dozen dice at a one fig inf and it lives….

Randwulf & I have just played with absurdly bad dice of both players.

I had a 3 fig tank unit trapped with not retreat therefore should be 50% hit rate. 11 rolls and only 2 hits. 22% not 50%.
On infantry from 11 rolls I rolled one infantry & four flags.

Similarly Randwulf rolled unusually unlucky attacking dice.

He is a good, generous player who seems to accumulate bad die rolls.

I can almost guarantee if I roll 2 dice it’s Star/Flag

It took us forever to play. We could not hit anything…

We couldn't hit each other. The final kills in the second game to many more turns than one would expect.
Good moves, great moves spoiled by unhelpful dice.

At the end of each battle the old M44 online would show the number of dice rolled against unit type and the hit rate, as well as the stats for the dice rolled. You could see if you'd rolled an average number of tank dice but hit tanks at a higher, or lower, rate.
You can have average rolls, but roll the wrong dice on the wrong target.

[Randwulf]

Ugh… When the " law of averages " kicks in, I will be unstoppable for about thirty games…

Perhaps not, as you have to roll the right dice for the target.
You may roll lots for tanks against infantry and infantry against tanks.

The dice may be correct, but your aim may not be.

[Nilugue]

I'm on the right it was a full infantry battle.
Yes I lose, more dice tank than soldier. 11 tank in a row ....
