Most incredible dice roll ever

[The Allamistako]

Well let's see - I'm the DM in my D&D group. And somehow, I ALWAYS roll 1's and 3's when it comes to attacking the party. Unless it's Marcus I'm attacking - then all I get is 19's and 20's...


And then theres my MAGE character. A Son of Ether. Those of you who've played WoD know how tough it is to get your hands on 10 dice for one roll.

I rolled 10 ones...

*BoooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!*

When I was about 9 years old I saw the stats for rolling 8 6s at once on d6s. I had always been lucky at rolling, and I simply didn't believe the number (1/6^8, about a million and a half to one against). So I grabbed my Risk dice started rolling. On roll 8, usre enough 8 6s. On roll 11, again, 8 6s.

Put the dice down and thought to myself, "see, I knew they were wrong."

True story...

I was in my neighborhood gaming store, walking around, chatting with friends...you know, hanging out.

They had put out some dice they'd found in the back, some old red d6's on the table, to use for counters and such in games like M:TG or other card games.

I'm looking at these dice...one of the "sides" has a star on it...there are about 8 dice in the bowl.

I'm trying to figure out if the "star" is for 1's or 6's. Finally seeing a 6, I decide that the star is for 1's.

So without saying anything else (other people were around hanging out too) I just looked at this bowl of dice and said, "Ones"

Then, for no particular reason, I rolled the bowl around and dumped all 8 dice out on the table...they ALL CAME UP AS 1.

Needless to say...I just looked around with a smug smile at all the bewildered faces and wandered off...

Nameless: Were you using the battle charts then? Damn, thats cool especially considering the duel. You musta got mucho Glory that game.

Yeah, battle charts. I wasn't the best tactician, but I had good raw water, good troops, and apparently some divine favor.

If you want to hear the full story of that battle, here it goes: Kisada sent me a missive two days before the battle, saying that I didn't have to win, just hold them off until he got there with his unbeatable, but unspecified army. I was giving the Dragon and Crane a good beating, and holding my own versus Toturi's army. Toturi ran up the parlay flag, and told me that Kisada was leading an army of zombies and oni, but I wouldn't believe him.

Fast forward a wee bit, and Kisada arrives leading a horde of shadowlands beasts, under the control of shugenja. I protest, but allow him to continue, as he is my daimyo and whatnot. His troops prove effective, but then he does another thing I didn't quite agree with: his shugenja started raising the soldiers fallen to the zombies AS zombies. Before I could complain, he unleashed Oni no Yakamo, who also decimated the enemy. When I told him that he was being foolish (knowing full well that he should crush me like a bug), he said that he was in control. I gave him a speech about the shadowlands only having one master, and he asked me what I was going to do about it.

Obviously tension was high. A little sniveling berserker was mouthing off to his daimyo, who happened to be the great bear. I questined his honor, his intelligence, and his duty to the empire. I tore off my Crab mon, laid down my sword, turned around and walked away. He let me go, and the 3,000 troops I commanded all laid down their swords too. We caught up with Toturi later that day, and pledged fealty to him.

All said, I gained 2 glory ranks that day, and a bit of honor to boot. It was the second best game of L5R I ever played... for brevity, I won't talk about the first yet.
