Strategy versus Dice
Posted: Thu Oct 11, 2012 9:35 pm
Hello again,
i do have a interesting subject
how much luck do you need , to beat strategy
and how much strategy do u need to beat dice,
as changra ( very intellectual poster) said
u have to make the dice work for u.
I realised , since i have played the first time the map of City Mogul
that dice dont matter anymore, hurray ( they do of course, but is it worth mentioning? )
And since i have been reading my way through the posts, i realized that everybody is an expert ,
like when i read newspapers, in the forum everybody is a politician
which reminds me of the saying
“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”
And when i said something about the dice, it was considered as dicebitching and i got slapped left and right.
Well i have now passed 1000 games, but why did it take me so long to start to get the swing into things ( well I'm not there yet, but i do start to understand the meaning of let the dice work for u ).
So the meaning of this post is really get input from u godplaying Members of CC , to understand dice ( good dice, bad dice what so ever)
and to understand strategy.
Of course with every different map, dice and strategy is changing, and thats actually the keyword.
In the beginning of my CC Career , i have stubbornly just played classic.
Of course u have to try different maps to get the feeling of CC.
Even every map is different, u can break it down what is dicerelated like classic, 1 vs 1 games i am talking now only, or luxembourg and so on
( u have to continue that yourself ), and maps where knowledge is more the keyword than strategy really, since knowledge of a map comes first
then u can make a strategy based on your facts of knowledge and experience of course.
When comes experience into play, well if u sit on your comp 24 hours a day, u get it fast,
but like me, working, taking care of friends and family, and living a social life which is time consuming, not that easy.
So my plan of this post is really, getting all necessary information of u guys, which will help new players understanding CC,
and i would like to explain it like i would to a 6 year old child.
( if u cant explain something to a 6 year old child, then u probably dont understand it yourself )
meaning, i want to make it as easy as possible , so everybody got something from it ( except the guys who have 3000 points anyway).
I am looking forward to it.
When i started i read a thread from Kiron and Xiangwang? But in this early days i had no idea what they where talking about ( diplomacy etc...)
i evern accused them of foul play and cheating- u can look it up, just go back to 2011.
That should be enough for now, but i will carry this on, hope u give me your thoughts of strategy and dice, and all about maps...
