Default Re: Are some randoms more random than others?

Equal distribution as far as my observations indicate.


The odds of NOT getting an extra water on a S&A Celestial Master would be ~76.6%. In other words, you can expect almost 1 out of 4 Celestial Master's to get at least 3 water, which certainly leads to the feeling that a lot of Celestial Masters get this bonus.

However, it should be noted that the number of mages of the same type recruited in a single game are often too low to use for any sort of statistics. I player a S&A game where 3 out of 5 Celestial Masters recruited in the first ten turns 1 blood, and by the end, 7/17 recruited had 1 blood - which are too few to use for a good statistical analysis, really, and certainly fall within the range of an "equal distribution" hypothesis. (It was fun though)
