sometimes it just happens. in a recent team game i lost something like 12 armies against 3 1 army terits. and the next turn somebody came and killed 11 of my troops with 8 without losing one.
one of my team mates lost several strange battles includin 4vs1 and 5vs1
and the other team mate lost 2 big attacks without taking out a single army.
needless to say the other team got lucky rolls loke 3vs3 and win without loss and so on. they creamed us. luck just wants to make fun of you sometimes. don't worry it happens to others too.

yestarday while playing with my friends on a real cardboard risk game i rolled triple ones 4 times in a row. i thought they did something to the dice. :lol:

Sometimes the dice require a blood sacrifice. You might consider starting with a goat...but the only real way to appease the dice gods is to sacrifice another player. I might suggest Hendy.

:)

I had a day last week where I literally couldn't win a roll. I had a another day the same week where it just seemed I couldn't lose. Streaky, streaky, streaky is the way of the dice. But it all evens out in the end...just not always at those crucial moments. (Like the week I had FOUR games where I got my opponent down to 1 and couldn't finish the game out that turn.)

Assuming you had at least 15 armies to start, the chance of that happening is .00008%. That might be a new record for futility.

Of course, if you had less than 15 armies, the chances skyrocket to .00027% so you're going to have let us know more precisely what the situation was because .00027% is nothing to cry about you little girl. :lol:

I got a better story... I attacked 25 to 23 and only lost 4 armies. Man the dice are great!

That's actually nowhere near as improbable. While certainly crazy, the chance of that happening is .29% which is about 3000 times more likely than what was described above.

to try and get the biggest players cards, on mongolia i had 10, he had 1 on china,8 on siam and 1 each on oceania. i took china losing 1, so it was 8 v 8. i was supposed to press attack but pressed auto instead and was left with 5. advanced and perfect dice wiped him out there. then on to america and a couple in europe, just about managed it and got his 5 cards, game over for the next player. :wink:
