Detailed description
-
• Please copy/paste the error message you see on your screen, if applicable.
The probability of the dice rolling the number of the location that the robber is placed on seems to dramatically increase after the robber is used. This allows players to manipulate the dice, and does not properly represent the randomness that should take place when rolling dice. This pattern takes place in the vast majority of Catan games I've played.
There is a small chance that it's by coincidence, but I've had dozens of games where the dice rolls 4 times in a row the number on which the robber is blocking, and nearly every game rolls between 1-3 times the number of the robber location immediately after it is placed. -
