In a game I just played two players flagged for 4th but one had two bases, one of which was unreachable by the other player. The player with one base destroyed one of the bases of the other. The remaining base had only two territories. That player proposed a roll-off. But the other player had considerably more territories.
What to do? I think of two alternatives. 1. Each rolls once. This is disadvantageous to the player with more lands. 2. Smaller rolls all his lands. Other player rolls all his lands. Sum of rolls wins. Any comments (including been there done that)? |

If the two remaining players can't fight but one is larger then the other why roll off? I mean 1st should either just decide whom to give what to or farm to maximize his own score. |

at 5:14 PM, Wednesday March 11, 2009 EDT I have an even better idea.
how about instead of playing any rounds of kdice, everyone waits till everyone at the table has 1 land with 3 dice (could be everyone with 4 dice?). And then, they each roll once to determine the outcome of the game for places 1-7. |

at 5:15 PM, Wednesday March 11, 2009 EDT also the whole concept of roll off boggles my mind.
isn't the game of kdice one gigantic game of roll off. I mean if you roll higher than the guy you're attacking, you win. |

at 12:52 PM, Thursday March 12, 2009 EDT what about the player who is most eager to roll off gets killed first?
