I've never had any problem with this game. If you do run accrossed a bad round, the next you have a better than good shot.

Nice commentary man. 3 cheers. (444 my god eric go 4)

I have discovered that in addition to being an idiot, you are also utterly full of shit. You claimed that the AI cannot roll three triples in a row. I have now seen it roll FOUR in a row a few times, and so have others. I have already had over 400 points, and 3 maxed-out robots and a huge lead, to be wiped out after the AI rolled as many as 6 or 7 triples in just 2 or 3 turns. This game is ridiculously imbalanced, period. Hexage is nothing but the purest sleaze.

correction: drone's best. levels up the fastest and can take a few shots. droid is too fragile so its not so good for this. tank has almost no damage output so its useless to level it up.

[GraveUypo]

if the AI has 2 or more high level bots and you dont, summon a firewall and try to hack them. you'll have a huge chance to succeed if you get lvl 2 hack or higher (with node above lvl 8 i think). if you get one of their high level robots that hack is worth more than 2 triples in a row, it can turn the game in your favor right there.

well youtube character limit sucks, so try this stuff and find out more strategies by yourself.

you can easily win even if the AI gets lucky with double triples.

[GraveUypo]

continuing: if you're lucky, its gonna be lvl 2 at least. if it is its probably good for 3 rounds, so keep on lasering their crap. if your robots get to shoot their mainframe on lvl 2~3, that's insanely fast exp for you. once you hit lvl 4 with one robot the game is pretty much over no matter what they roll.

if you get your turn with some robots and theres he's got no robots, use rapid fire. that's a ton of extra xp for your bots.

do NOT summon 3 robots or the pc will hack you.

[GraveUypo]

anyway here's some advice.

don't let the AI have any robots. summon 1 or 2 robots (droid's best) to soak damage (and hopefully survive until they level up to lvl 3) and keep spamming laser beans / shock as to keep their robots permanently disabled / dead. if you do that, they will ALWAYS summon another robot on the next turn. if your robots die, summon new ones. keep doing that until your robots are able to one-shot at least one of theirs. then you summon a firewall.

[GraveUypo]

rofl the AI cant roll 3 trips in a roll because the 3rd is discarded by the game by force.

go suck somewhere else
