This is probably a really stupid question but we're just going to start playing SBG (from big blue and not Hobbit) and I wanted to make sure I got this right, the only time you use the melee fight value is if the dice rolled (which is based of your attack stat) are drawn? |

Welcome and hope you enjoy the game! The role of the Fight value may not seem like much, but it definitely adds up over time. |

Yep, players of other GW games apparently call this "the game of sixes". Two people drawing their top dice happens surprisingly often. Statistically if just rolling one die each it'll happen 1:6 times. |

Aye, defintely don't underestimate the importance: it's not just automatically winning if you roll a 6 (as others can't get higher than that, and you win the draw), but drawing on any number will grant victory to those with the higher F value. Few things more satisfying than rolling a 1 with your Elf but still winning because your opponent does the same... |

I see a LOT more ties during a game that are NOT 6. Fight value comes into play more often than tying on a 6. |

I must admit I didn't think there was much use for it on my initial read through the rules but it is apparent that this just isn't the case. |
