Based on Martins comment
Quote1. Both players contribute to the countdown. With re-rolls. To mirror the 21 point countdown a 40 point countdown would be needed. 40 Zebras?
As its stands we have a single roll (1-6) stopping when it gets to 21
Minimum Turns = 4
Maximum Turns = 21
Over 10K iterations we largely get a 6-7 turn games (over 50% of the time)

The proposal is 0-40, both players roll, each with the option to re-roll for a more preferred value.
(in my simulation defender re-rolls results < 4 and attacker re-rolls > 4 - typical situation)
over 10K iterations

it does push the distribution more into the middle - with nearly 50% games being 6 turns.
Thanks Simon.
That is the intended outcome.
