What's with the dice rolls?

I think this might have been mentioned, but I have started to notice more and more, attacks that have more dice than the defender losing. Things like 5 dice to 3 and the 5 loses. And it seems like almost every time it is an equal attack, the attacker loses. Is it just me?

when you get equal rolls, it isn't "almost every time" that the attacker loses, it is <b>every</b> time. |

If it's 3 dice vs 3 dice, then each player will roll and the total of each dice roll will be anywhere from 3 (if they roll all 1s) to 18 (if they roll all 6s). The higher roll wins, and ties go to defender.
