8vs 11 starting dice.


I've not seen an 8 dice player come off well yet.

In fact in three this morning, the 8 players had one territory left with 3 dice on it.


This seems like a huge disadvantage to those playing with the 8 dice.

Hmm, maybe I should be.


My point is on the 25 territory tables. Some players start with 11 dice, and some with 8.


Given that in some cases +3 dice is a good first round result, it's a huge advantage.

In fact I've not seen an 8 start dice player win a game, and quite often, they are down to 3 dice before they have played.

Does that make more sense?

On a 25 territory board players start like this:

4 players with 4 lands and 11 dice,
1 player with 3 lands and 8 dice,
2 players with 3 lands and 9 dice.

I think what Scorp is saying is that the 5th player is at an extreme disadvantage on these very tight boards. I think it may be better to reverse starting orders or just create a minimum of 28 territory boards since the 5th player on 25 land boards is at a severeq disadvantage.
