I'm done with WH40K for a while. I played a 1500 point game with my friend, Brian Bigford, last night. He had Ultra-Marines. I had Dark Angels Deathwing. Brian brought out the the new $80.00 space marine versions of CSM obliterators. They obliterated a squad of Deathwing terminators. Brian needed 2 or better to wound. He caused 10 AP 2 wounds. I needed 10 saves of 5-6 on 10D6 for my invul saves. I rolled 7 "1's".
Can anyone else on the planet do that on a consistent basis? I challenge anyone. Sapper Joe, Hostile Contact, and Combat Colours have seen my dice rolling in person. It's not pretty. I've managed to roll 5 ones on 7D6 before. But this is a new record in infamy. Needless to say, I lost. I'd taken pictures of the game up to that point. Afterwards, I gave up....
What's the point me playing WH40K if I'm going to roll consistently awful?
Good question. Why do I keep putting myself through such misery?
I'm at a loss...
The End. For now....
Hi, I feel your pain. My all time record was during a game of "The Trojan War"; 14 ones on D6 in a row. TTW uses a CRT where a one means attacker eliminated, so about 1/3 of my army disappeared that combat phase. And yes, although every once and awhile I roll well, it seems craptastic luck is my stock-in-trade. I've had gamers with 30 years experience say they have never seen dice luck as lousy as mine. I much prefer games where luck is not such a factor. Oh well. C'ya, Charles
