Sick of 80% of the site

Few things are more rage-inducing than having a stack on a small bonus region, and watch another player knock off the other stacks in the region and fortify next to you (for some reason, the poorest strategies seem to get the best dice). You usually can't move, but you know that stack's going down next turn. I'm in a game currently where a player cashed a set for 20, and used it to kill 14 of my troops, just to hold a +3 bonus.

Or worse, a 15 page stickied thread about whether to change the icon for new recruits. :roll:

How about the powers that be take my $25 and invest it in a worthwhile "random cube generator." The one they got is BS and I'm getting pretty tired of having to put up with its so called randomness. Seeing a guy lose 2 guys (I kid you not) in an entire game doesn't cry random to me. Is it really so much to ask for that an investment be made into a dice generator that everyone can stand behind, or do I have to watch my "donation" go to make more cc shirts.

Also, how about team term and assassin games?

This thread really isn't about bad dice. Maybe you should start your own thread about how the dice seem odd

As for team assassin, fantastic idea. I remember the thread up for that a while ago and it just disappearing with a whimper. I'd fully support that idea again because that would truly make team esc games exciting and introduce a team strategy for hiding targets, etc.
