It is your opponent's turn to attack right now.

Assuming my calculations are correct, he has to capture all your dice in order to win.
But if he skill attacks your X, then your 2 catches his 2 and then you catch his 1, so there's no way for him to get your 8 showing 8.
So is there any path he has to have a chance of winning? If he trips your 8, same problem, your 2 takes his 2 and then one of your 2s gets his 1.
This seems to say that taking your 2-sider showing 2 with his 6-sider is the best chance of winning, which seems crazy!
That doesn't quite work, though. if she doesn't capture my 8 sider -- or at least make it reroll RIGHT now, she can't possibly win. if I can, I'll take the trip die on my next turn without rerolling the d8, then it will be safely out of her range as I pick off the d1, then capture the d6 on the last turn.
So her only hope is to trip the d8. that's as far as I got in-game and it led me to post the problem. But now, I see your point, maybe that's no better: after all, I can then take the trip die and my d6 is safe for at least one turn... even if the d6 rolls high enough to threaten it, I can capture it and take the d1 on the next turn. So my original idea is wrong, there was no way out for glassonion at this point.
I should edit the problem to make one of these approaches work but not the other.
