This eliminates all of the direct risk of finishing off away players --or people that are just sitting on one territory-- without changing the balance of the game by giving a direct bonus.

If you want an example:
My last territory has 8 dice. You attack me with a stack of seven and lose, it immediately refills back to 7. You can't attack with that territory for the rest of the turn, but otherwise it's like nothing happened.

All the best!

Bad idea. Really bad idea.

And nerving! Accept that there are different ways to play these game! Please!

Idiotic. Go free shots at people during the early and mid parts in the game! All it would do is encourage people to take shots at people (for free) with less dice and hope for a lucky roll.

One of the main complaints is away players with one territories, I offered this as a suggestion to address that.

It doesn't really do anything except make them get knocked out before others.

I say leave the risk of losing the die.
