There are ways to make other players hit each other while you (rather) safely gain lands yet encourage them to not attack you. 'Elbowing out' is a term I use for this move. Situation: You can 8v5, 7v4 or 6v3 someone to take a land, forcing them to reconnect their empire THROUGH someone else who is lowstacked. (example, 6v3 and yellow is cut, now yellow 4v3's green nearby to reconnect instead of through your 5 stack or more that is left). ((NOTE)) Be aware of who's turn is in what order, because if the other player can restack dice there then you might have no acheived the point of this)

What is gained? You gain a land. You push the front forward, and the last move involved two different players attacking each other, and not you. Dice gain is only as good as the amount of wars you must fight to maintain them. Goodluck out there.
