Sure, you can spend the last turn choosing a split path direction to pick a red or happening space for a better chance of that possible bonus star if you’ve been mentally counting the spaces everyone lands on like counting cards in blackjack. An x% chance of reaching the star next turn with double dice if nothing ridiculous happens. The usual.
You can also win most of the minigames among your couch buddies and still end up rolling 1s and 2s for movement in the first 4 rounds, just like queuing up on Lichess against other 500s for 4 straight games as black and dealing with Wayward Queens. Yeah, you remember how to play against it by the fourth match, but it’s better just to treat it like a dice game lol
Fake news. White’s commissar is on the field, rallying the troops forward!
…while the fascist kaiser is sitting in a banker with his officers on either side, contemplating resigning or fleeing to South America.
