I was attacking with my 13v20. It wasn't a suicide run; I just wanted to whittle away some of the armies to soften my opponent up.

But attack favors the defender, so such things should occur at least equally as often as 20v13, losing 19 and defeating none occurs. :)

Speaking of cards, In one of my games I had 5 blue cards when I had to turn in a set, then I got another 2 before I finally received an other colour, so... at least 5 blue in a row, I don't remember what the cards before were.



Oh, and I just lost 35 to 36 when attacking, so statistically things are pretty much as they should with the dice.

I love the dice today! I just finished taking my turn in 10 of my games, and I won with overwelming victory on the battlefield. 6v5, not losing a soldier, 10v8 not losing a soldier, 5v6 not losing a soldier (I'm the five.) The only bad part was 8v2 and losing.

You meant to say attack favors the attacker, right?

For the attacks you're talking about 20v13, the attacker has a 7.91% better chance of winning each attack (as long as the attacker uses 3 dice and the defender uses 2 dice).

The only attacks that favor the defender are attacks where the defender throws the same number of dice as the attacker, or where the defender throws a greater number of dice than the attacker. That is, attacks like: 3v2, 2v2, and 2v1.

I once won a 5 v 9.
I had the 5 and was attacking. I attacked out of sheer frustration at the dice raping I was getting all game.

*sigh* Yeah, my brain is rather fried right now.

I'd take a break of a few days if I didn't have any games currently going right now.
