I used to be more of an auto attack guy, but it can hurt you when you have a bunch of unusually unlucky rolls.

Depends on the situation. That being said, No "GFY" no vote. [-(

CC is not my life, so I use Auto-attack, it's faster. But, of course, I admit, Attack can be sometimes better, but it's so long.

I developed a working theory about auto verse regular attack,
Auto tends to grab a chunk off dice rolls from the dice pool at once, so if that chunk is full of low rolls , you will likely lose, or if it is good rolls you will win.
OK ...DUH ! ! In my experience though, auto is very rarely my friend. So I avoid it except when I am on a rampage and only 1's and 2's are in the way.
I never use it unless my army count is at least 10 to 1 . I have even lost those rolls at times..lol Early in the first few of my games, I lost 20 men to a 1. Learned real fast to not use auto .

Now by choosing to use regular attack , I can see what type of rolls are showing up, if those rolls tend to lean more towards the defender, I can stop and wait for a chunk of the dice to be used up by other games, then try my luck again. I have found that this tends to work in my favor more then not.

When I pay attention to the pattern of dice rolls , with patience and slow attacks I usually win in the end.
:D :D 8)

auto is for chumps (unless you are in a freestyle game and there is a mad rush going on... but even then, freestyle is for chumps.)

Attack lets you keep an army alive so you dont get wholly decimated.

Auto attack is kind of a cross your fingers and hope you make it.

I only use it against 3's and lower when I have men in the 20's.

usually in freestyle, auto attack is much better and it will win you more games,

auto usually won't be that bad of an idea in a small game, but in a large game, it's bad b/c you wipe out most of your offensive/defensive people

Auto
