....you change dice every time they roll a skull or 1
....you won't say "anything but a one", because that just invites bad luck
....when you have to dodge on the first square of an AG4 player's move - you won't count the first square out loud. Saying one will invite the dice to roll it!
....you lift your feet when driving over train tracks
....you think that when you accidentally knock down a player right before moving them, that it is a bad omen |

For some reason I only use my NAF dice. Never let them touch any other dice and store them neatly with my team* .
Considering my record...I should let someone else use them.

Never call a Blood Bowl team an army - they don't like it, and fall over a lot.

You should also add
...never say "Go for it one" when you roll for the first of them
to the list |

I do the first too. I'm convinced changing dice when rolling reduces the number of snake eyes & quad skulls. |

Sorry I don't normally call them an army. I was taking a break from packing up a 40K army when I took a break to browse the forum and guess got stuck in that other mindset. I assure you all that it will never happen again.

Nobody will touch my yellow NAF dice, they have only been used in 3 games, and all three times that team lost badly. The pink dice on the other hand seem to have a higher than average win percentage.
Lifting feet for train tracks? not a good plan if you need to accelerate faster to beat the train! |

In the last tourney i attended, one of my opponents suggested using the same set of dice for the two of us.
The rolls were perfectly average: Ones to threes for me, and fours to sixes for him.
I had like 5 or 6 injured players in that game.
I will NEVER EVER again share my dice with someone else. |
