Detailed below are the 36 dice
combinations. It is well worth committing to memory the figures in this table as they are a very
valuable weapon in your armoury. You don't need to remember what the rolls are just how many
there are.

You can use the second table above to work out how many dice rolls (and what they are) will hit
a single blot n points away. For example, a blot 5 points away will be hit by 15 dice rolls
(assuming that there are no blocking points between you and your opponent; if this is the case then
less the sum will be less than 15).
The easiest blot to hit is 6 points away (17) but the odds on being hit by two men (or having two
men hit by a single opponent's man) are considerably more. The next table shows how dangerous a
man or men are exposed to a double hit.
