There are a number of people in my environment who get way too upset at their bad dice. It would be balanced if they also got elated by their dice when these are good, but they seem to focus on the bad. As a result, they tend to sour the atmosphere a bit.

Or just go my route, admit the dice suck, break out the unused dice from my second core and a new dice pack, and instantly start getting better results. True story.

Dras toryn is a major factor in this game and she is on the rebels. She gives virtually most of your fleet swarm..... The rebels currently rely a lot on bombers..... Wish they can reroll like no ones business..... Toryn is a game changer. I'd rebels need to rely on luck so much why are the dominating regionals and worlds?

And my point was, you need to take a 7 point Upgrade and put it in an officer slot, and have it in the right position on the battle field......

...

Whereas the Empire Fighters just get it.

...

You can do it... But its a chain of things to do just to try to reach parity.

Iyo the rebels cannot match the empire in dice manipulation, when I would argue the rebels lead in dice manipulation. Doesn't matter who is right other than I think it is wrong, statistically and evidently to claim the rebel's cannot match the empire.

Did you note the difference between Dice fixing and dice manipulation ?


What I've written is an opinion piece. Doesn't need to be agreed with or not.

Also, it was terribly rambling, and I should go back and edit it... But I have no actual motivation for that... Since the entire premise of doing it was GK said 2000 words and I wanted to make him read it.

In short:

As a Rebel Player... I've given up on attempting to fix my dice. It won't happen. Not without playing the Empire...

But I can utilise some of the dice manipulation I do have access to - without going overboard on trying everything, and thus, doing nothing....

Interesting, A Swedish Green Knight. I know another Green Knight (his handle in planets.nu), who lives near Örebro. He's not, himself, Swedish, but he lives there.

Glad you got some good games in here in Östersund, always good to have you here!

I met Mikael...

(Channeling Shaggy)

Brought a big ball of Rhymer - Wasn't me.

Ozzel was his commander - Wasn't me.

Speed three, goin' too fast - Wasn't me.

400 points, go-in' last- Wasn't me.

M'wanted, Outposts; Positions - Wasn't me.

Too few upgrade additions - Wasn't me.

Roll blanks on my black dice - Wasn't me.

Even when BCCs lemme roll twice.

And, no it really wasn't me, though I do hope to visit Sweden (and my other Green Knight friend) sometime next summer.

Hi Mikael,

Let us know if you fancy a game while in Sweden! If you're on Facebook, look for the group "Star Wars: Armada Sweden" to find players and/or tournaments in your area. Since it's still a small community I'm sure many would welcome an international guest. :-)
