Damn I wish that they would come up with a more appropriate name for this game we play based on the risk that is inherent in attacking and defending...

And go tell the English that they had lucky dice at the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, after all they were greatly outnumbered by the French...

a couple weeks ago I looked at mine and it said -70% attack and -45% defend.... it was right in the middle of me winning about 15 games in a row...

That is why the page for 'Battle Outcomes' is also helpful to look at.

Is there any proof you would accept that the dice aren't manipulated or 'poorly coded' whatever that means? What do you have in mind?

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. WE NEED A RECOUNT! The dice were not fair!

Starting watching more closely and noticed thigns not adding up. Then tonight my opponent hits a neutral and then 3 of mine that had 2 troops apiece on them - stats show 1 win 5 losses on 3v2 .... pure bullshit.

thats my rant - and I stick to it ... not the first time I have seen discrepencies either.
Are you sure that you were looking at the "Overall dice rolls" section and not mistakenly the "Recent dice rolls section"?

I was looking at the 'recent battle outcomes' more or less real time as they happened. I started doing that a while ago and have noticed that odd things happen sometimes - odd as in that what it shows doesn't match what actually happened.

Sometimes a player can be playing other games so I've been careful to rule that out too.

@donkeymile If you think that there is a bug, can u document it? Screen shots before, in between and after battles from dice stats and BOB screen shots from the part of the game when those battles occurred. If u find anomaly post them into this thread and u will most likely get logical explanation from someone.

I'm observing dice stats feature regularly(only battle outcomes) from very beginning of the implementation and I haven't found any bugs so far... Personally I doubt that I will find bugs regardless of how much I look.
The code for the dice stats is soo simple so the chance for a bug in there is 0%(lack takes top X rows and summarizes them).

P.S. I already found a bug in the game and reported it(it was fixed few hours after my report) + I work as software developer in RL so u can consider my post as valuable.

BTW you can freely complain about the representation of the Dice Stats, that is not quite perfect and could use some improvements.

Just happened AGAIN - pure bullshit manipulation

12v7 ended 1v6 and the dice stats showed that I was 8 wins 4 losses - sry no screenshots.

So sick of this bullshit - I see it so consistently its no wonder all the dice odds stats look to be around 0% .. how convenient.

So that means after 2 or 3 vs 7 or 6 you suicided down to 1v6...

Quit blaming the dice :lol:

I absolutely did suicide - it was trench and he had 2 bonus - the 12 v7 was merely the end of a bad game.

And I wasn't blaming the dice for the loss btw - was only complaining that what happened wasn't accurately reflected in the stats .

Ultimately in this game the better players are going to rise above bad dice more often than not - I don't blame the dice so much - I just hate when they ruin a good game.
