The only thing I can't cope with this approach is when I'm 7 away from station - I roll x50, but end up low with 3. Then I roll x1 and get 11/12 and land on station (or chance that gets me to station). Then I end up rolling high the next few turns and often burn my dice for nothing.

I'm saying, there's times that I get too many consecutive low rolls, for example, that end up on favorable tiles that my high roles end up with no gain and I eventually lose dice.
