I remember he was defending with 2 dice and I was attacking with 3. I vividly remember when I rolled 3 six's and expected certain victory but he rolled boxcars to counter my attack. I really don't want to know the odds on that happening.
When people say there is no such thing as luck, I don't believe them. I have faced luck and lost too many times playing RISK. LOL
