Less Luck.

[soundguy]

i'd at least like to hear what you come up with... my gamer group likes strategy over straight luck.. sure. even with a good plan 'stuff happens' but we've all had days where the dice was 100% against you.. or the draw pile had 40 cards of junk on the top and all the gas was stacked together on the bottom.

amazing bad luck happens.. but it should be rare.. same with amazing good luck. it's no fun if your gamers first draws are all their objectives and stuff they need to win in 2 turns. and happend repeatively.

for the most part. luck should be average or even.. with lil bumps and troughs.. and every now and then pits and peaks. it shouldn't constantly flop from disaster to miracle, like rolling a die for movement turn to turn can make it seem. wow.. running across an open field and all i can roll is a string of 1's ? really... contrasted with running thru a crowded diner of tables and i can drop 6's all day.

that in itself takes away from reality and playability for those of us gamers that prefer mechanics that actually work and mimic real life.
