I know, beating a dead horse...I have had the good luck and bad but I have NEVER f,,,,ing had this...
At LEAST 5 times today I have lost 9 to 1 attacking, or worse.
I know it will cost me some games.
WTH? Yeah, maybe I SHOULD stop rolling, but......I dont get it.
RANT OVER
I guess I would rather have this rolling and plan for it then not play at all..I am hopeless!

I hate the dice almost all the time... They eliminated me from several games already...
And, I had some good luck too... Usually in games that were already won...

Dice waste my precious luck!!
Example: game 12143, British Isles map. I had already Scotland and Ireland, my partner had Lands End. I had 9 in the borders, and the enemy had 8 (he was holding North England and had only 2 cards)... I got 15 bonus armies, and a set of 10, so I had 34 armies. I simply destroyed the 8 losing nothing, then I went to his partner and his own head... Was this luck necessary? When I need luck in games not won yet, I never have. Instead, I lost 9 attacking 3.
Sucking dice!!

Its agreed that the dice suck when attacking... I wish you could call up a history log of moves, to see how things worked out for the attacker when you weren't looking

you guys don't gamble much do you. if you did and were successful you would know when to quit " 1 lost 17 guys to 3 and it left me with 1 guy and he still had 3. tell me somthing would he have attacked your 17 guys with his 3 - no! so lose a couple of guys then go on to something else you still hold the country try again next turn =-= DON'T LOSE MORE MEN THAN YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE

Sure, but sometimes you NEED really attack.
In one recent (escalating) game I killed a player that had 5 cards, cashed twice, than attacked a player that had 4 cards. He survived, but only with New Guinea, and both Australia countries (1 army in each territory). As I didnt want let another player kill him, I moved my troops and put 22 armies in Indonesia. He had no sets yet (thanks God!!), so in my next turn I saw the only thing he did was deploy in Eastern Australia. I deployed in other countries, planning already the rest of the turn after kill him, I would use 22 against 6 armies. Those armies in Eastern Australia were so hard that after take finally Western Australia, I could advance only 2 armies to it... Could I stop the attacks? Of course no!! I had an enormous advantage, and almost lose all (including the game)...
Uff... I won. And gained 68 points... but what fucking dice!!
dicey dice

I've lost soooooooooooo many armies due to unlucky dice & all for the chance to gain a card of which I have no armies in the continent let alone the territory named.
