Yet another dice complaint

Dear Sir/Madam,

I wish to express my disatisfaction of the latest streak of bad intensity cubes... I hate them... Something wrong with attacking dice. I do not win 42v35, or win win it with just 7 left, this is way not enough and not natural. Cuz of this, I cannot win manual England and have dropped 500 points in 24 hours.

Yours sincerely,
A very angry jle

He is 11 years old. 42 to 35 seems like a guarantee--lol

The odds of winning 42 vs 35, using every last troop, work out at 0.8735002772926541

He was complaining about having 7 left, so that's actually 73%.

So what?

87% means that if there's a 100 situations like that, you lose 13 times. That does not seem so unlikely to me that you should complain about it.

You want bad dice? I just played a game where I had the game in great shape (on the Peloponesian map) with almost twice the bonus and all that other great stuff ...

my opponent meets me (its FoW) - he has 51, and I have stacked 60 followed by a 1, a 3 and an 11 ....he takes my 60 with 49 left - YES 49!!!!!! That is fucking bullshit ..... fucking bullshit .... a couple turns later he stumbles into a trap I have set - he has 9 and I have set a 7 a 5 and a 9 to protect a bonus and HE WALKS THROUGH ALL OF IT!

This kind of bullshit is why I consider walking away from the site ..... I have already posted about great dice I have gotten, so no point in anyone telling me how I forget about the good dice I get. I like random but when a game gets ruined with dice like I just dealt with, it just isn't right.

I'd sworn off 1v1, and have only played the Pelop map on that setting because its the closest to fair that I can see getting .... but this was too much .... complete bullshit ... I'll take a 42-35 win with 7 left any day

I won 4v16 before :) Oh and, 49v60 is 35% Not that low, plus with the effect of attacker's dice...

but it wasn't a 49v60 win it was a 51v60 win with 49 left which is essentially a 2v60 win

such is random - just sucks when it ruins a good game like that

Try losing 20 to a 2, then talk.
I'm the biggest complainer on dice (probably one of the biggest). I'm apathetic toward them now.

Round 17

lost 3 3x1 in a row trying to get a bonus from an oppponent.

Round 18

lost 3 3x1 in a row trying to get the same bonus from the same guy

Round 19

Lost a 8x3 down to 1x3 (killed NONE) trying to get the same bonus from the same guy again.

WHY am I forbidden to kill his armies?

WHAT ARE THE ODDS?

Rounds 17 and 18: Roughly 1.5% of the time this will happen
Round 19: Roughly 1.1%

All in all you should get better dice 99.99975% of the time you roll these attacks.
