Haha, touché. You are an evil man!Now drop the IIFT in favor of the IFT and you'll be alright.

Exactly my demand for the precision-dice folks: Precision glass cups and precision dice towers! :nod:Was it a precision glass cup?
That was Dave Derensinski who did thatStreaks >= 10 are not that infrequent. I have been probably witness to around 20 of them and that's a conservative estimate. There is not only the multiple player turn factor as already mentioned, but also the fact that there are several ROF3 weapons in each scenario played. These high ROF weapons are usually placed in places with good LOS all around, such as high ground, so there are unlikely to completely run out of targets.
(And yes it happened not later than five days ago, i lost 35% of my OB in one fire phase and conceded shortly after).
This isn't so clear. For instance, tossing a die. The die lands with just enough energy that it is balanced precariously on one edge. With the slightest variation of conditions it will tip one way or the other, landing on one of two sides. For most of the range of circumstances it will be possible to predict the results, but there is a very narrow band where you cannot without gathering more information. It may be impossible to gather enough information to predict the outcome in some cases.there is nothing random or disordered in the universe. we're just not able to see it's 'order'
Quantum Mechanics (QM) has produced some of the most counter intuitive but accurate explanations and predictions. Bell's theorem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell's_theorem) and the various experimental tests of same have ruled out any "hidden local variables" as being behind QM. So for the moment we must accept at face value the randomness of everything underpinning reality. Though for macroscopic objects the range of likely or almost certain actions or positions might be extremely, extremely narrow, every thing and action in the universe can only be described by having probabilities of being in particular states or positions.there is nothing random or disordered in the universe. we're just not able to see it's 'order'
You may be very right on that one. Another reason against precision dice, because this allows you more "credibly" to do so.I know its not true but sometimes it 'feels' better to blame the dice rather than my inadequate preparation, attention to detail or reading what the victory conditions are
You should have counter-b**ched and whined that you had just wasted four good DRs where a series of average or almost-average rolls was sufficient!IIRC, one TH was a CH and the other was a '4', with something like a 14TK; both destroyed. He immediately started b**ching and whining about how he couldn't win if I continued to have such 'hot dice'. I told him that the 1,1 and 1,3 TH DRs were immaterial, because anything '9' or less would have hit them. What if I had rolled '9' on my TH? That is above-average and in most cases poor rolls. Same thing on the TK DRs, I rolled something like a '5' and '6' respectively. "Your dice are on fire!" I replied that with a '14' TK, only a Dud wouldn't have destroyed them.
Then he goes down in the sewer, lol.
