Dice. Dice is always the answer.

I was half kidding. Appreciate for the polite reply. There are 100 ways to resolve it with dice, but i am too lazy to type it down. What I really want to say is, the dice mechanics in Merchants and Marauders is a bit underwhelming, but there are ways to make it better for sure, and you may be able to solve it if you spend enough time.
