I've lost every time I have attempted to beat someone into a hex. What makes them win the hex all the time?

That issue came up a while back. I was told by one of the site people that (contrary to the basic rules which make it random) it is determined by the "Tons" value of the ship. The larger ship takes the hex.


I'm pretty sure it's a random... I think there was a thread on this a few months back.

That thread was started 86days 11h 26' 5" ago by you (moonglum01).

I responded by quoting the rules.

avallega responded with
"It's important everybody to know that in our site the die is rolled ONLY if the weight of the ships is the same (tons). If different the ship that weights more enter the hex!"
http://www.youplay.it/beta/play/forum_showmessage.asp?msgid=2456
I then suggested that this local deviation be noted in the rules. It has not been added.

So, the answer, according to the site is; it is the "Tons" value of the entering ship which is used to make the determination, with the larger ship getting the hex. It is only random if the ships have the same "Tons".
