So there it was I took out a player for his cards and traded for 50 . 3 guys left and 1 had 4 cards , My armies about 80 his about 70 spread over loads of countries (over 20 , lots of singles) . It was my only chance to go for it , to just believe in the dice for once think the impossible that I could do it . It started so well , didn't lose an army for 10 throws and then came the test , a border of 20 , would the dice fail me now? NOOOO! the beauties did me proud , I only lost 10 or so.

From then I knew I couldn't do a thing wrong. 30 v 29 to take his cards and I was left with 13 , Not only that but I got a double cash from my 6 cards to win the game.

My point? This could be just a note to all players bashing the dice when things go bad and thinking its fixed but in reality its for me, for when in a few days time and I lose 20 v 4 or five 3 v 1's in a row just for a card, to remind me that in the big scheme of things it all works out in the end. :D

I'll say what I always say, whenever you blame the dice for bad luck, the defender had good luck. So next time it could happen to you.

I know, but his post suggests the the dice has a specific allegiance, which is untrue.

I agree with that. Usuaklly, we tend to remember only the bad dice throws, and don't remember how many good ones we had. :D

My post was to remind others and me that they can be good as well as bad, but people forget the good times , this is so I don't :)
