As veteran Xwing players often say "Dice Happen"
Any stories of dice luck...good or bad to share?
My two stand out ones are an Academy Pilot taking my Han out with two crits and a hit (yup...two direct hits for five in total) during the 2013 UK Nationals
Also, rolled four natural crits...with a heavy laser cannon at the Stevenage store champs last year.
Feel free to share your tales of woe.
Everyone knows about my fickle green dice (but I'm persisting with my conversion to TIEs)

Well even though its Armada I do have a bad dice story (don't we all) Don't know if I told you Sam but in my first game at the Store Champs at Dark Sphere I had 4 X-wings on bombing runs for 3 turns......only rolled blanks and accuracies!!! They made up for it in the end though by taking down an MC80 in the squadron phase of the last turn and getting me the win

Bad cards instead of dice - two weeks ago slave one takes 6 crits across the evening. Yep - 6 direct hits

ouch...my Armada woes are almost legendary. Marc will attest that I lined up a perfect Demolisher shot with four blacks and rolled four blanks.
Which is why Ordinance Experts are now my friends.

My favourite recent dice woe was playing WMH against Tom U...needed to roll a 15 to hit (yeah...that's a thing) which as my brain knows couldnt happen on 2 dice I boosted (adding a dice to your roll).
Rolled a 14. Now...so far, so average, right? Near miss, meh. Except the 2 dice I'd picked up before boosting where showing double sixes, which would've been a hit, if I hadn't boosted, bah!
