Probably just one more of many of these, but here's a chance to update your lucky moments and your misfortunes.
I'll start:
Best rolls: Won a 16 v 18 and I had 8 troops spare (But way too late to make any difference. ) in this game
Worst rolls: Lost a 6v1 then a 3v1 in the same round while trying to take over Eastern Turkey in this game.
I must confess, I have insanely good luck. I cannot think of a game where I have had bad rolls and won. (the only game where I've had REALLY bad dice was against Xenhu, I think he has powers he's not revealing) Every point I have, I owe to great dice.
Best single roll ever, 17 on 30, I won, with 4 armies left.

My worst was a 31v7 and i lost to 1 with them having 2 left over. I was so pissed i just kept hitting attack. I couldn't fathom that they just kept getting 2 wins on each roll.
My best was a 5v12 and i won with 4 left over. Nothing special to anyone else but to me it was like winning the civil war. It was great. I think i left the game for an hour after that. lol
Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American G. I. One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.
I won 8 v 14 with 4 to spare a while ago but I lose loads all the time. For example, yesterday I had 20 armies to take out 4 or 5 1-army territories and finished off with 2. I have learnt to accomodate for bad rolls and am now winning games even with horrible dice.

I lost 43 attacking 17. Same game I had 23 and was attacked with 7 and it took me down to 5.
In another game I held Australasia for most of the round. One player deadbeated, the other two players only gained continents in the last two rounds, even though I was picking up 2 extra armies each round I never had more troops than them as I was losing 3 and 4 troops each attack (attacking ones) while they were rolling perfect rolls(and for the most part not attacking each other). Personally I think these two players were cheating because at one point when player 2 held Africa, he had 1 army on North Africa, while player 1 held south America but he didn't break him when he easily could have. Player 2 wasted all the troops he had built up destroying my defense whch left player 1 to swoop in and wipe us out. What made it even more annoying is that they gave each other feedback, player 1 claiming that it wasn't lack of skill that caused player 2 to lose, but poor dice... 9 armies defeating 20 armies equates to poor dice?
I eliminated a guy with a 2v2 once and it allowed me to win the game. Of course, that was after having lost and unreasonable amount of armies to get to that stage - a likely elimination became an extremely risky one

7 v 10, with 3 left after was the best I've ever got.
I'd say the worst was 13 v 4 and I quit when it was 2 v 3. I was so pissed, I would have won if it wasn't for that...
I, like most others here, get horrible dice most of the time. Lately it's been so bad that I won't even try to take a territory unless it's 10 v 3 or similar odds.
Has anyone else noticed that if its 3 v 1, like early in the game and your just trying to get a card, thats its almost immposible to take that territory? I've yet to twin the battle when it was 3 v 1.
