The best - but hardest to pull off - tactic vs bad luck is to isolate an enemy unit and attack it at 5:1. (3:1 is just as good if you just need the D - lone infantry or all the time in the world).

The second-best tactic to beat bad luck in Ogre is to get the biggest cybertank you can and ram. Ram often. That'll cost you treads, but it's almost always worth the trade.

The third-best tactic to beat bad luck is to roll the dice as often as possible at 1:1 odds. Misplaced Buckeye describes the weakness of that tactic. (In public? Good thing we're not Vikings.)
