Of course, only one really knows I'm here, so I'm in the clear!

Since Acheron and Eskcanta haven't posted actions yet, I'll try squeezing the update into my lunch break tomorrow.  That is 17 hours from now.

I'll roll dice right now, though:

The Consequence: 2
The Herald: 2+1  (Unless the consequence is not giving a bonus)
Holden: 1+1
Nerjin: 1+1
Argentia: 6+1
The Shifter: 6+1
Gorgamast: 5+1
Acheron: Fish (Encrypted roll)
Eskcanta: Bear (Encrypted roll)

Don't know whether I should laugh or cry... :o

Are you using digital dice?

Not yet.  This time I used a transparent one, so that I know it has no bubbles.

Come to think of it, I'm the GM, I can call a reroll if I think my rolls will break the game.  This time, I will roll 9 separate dice.  (I have lots of dice.)

Seriously, digital dice are really good for true randomness. Though they probably won't help if you have a serious bad luck streak.

The Consequence: 5
The Herald: 5+0
Holden: 3+1
Nerjin: 5 (Refused assist)
Argentia: 3+1
The Shifter: 4+1
Gorgamast: 6-1
Acheron: 2+1
Eskcanta: 2+1

That's more like it.

EDIT 1: Also, Azahaam gets to act this turn.  I wonder what he'll do.
EDIT 2: Nerjin refused the assist.
EDIT 3: New 'direct assist' rule.

I'd like to point out that I refused the assist.

Just so DreamThorn is clear, I'm basically using my action to provide a bonus to the other's actions.

Wondering, with the OP rules, if this is actually allowable?  Specifically -

An action may not affect something created during that same turn.

I could see him improving past or future rolls, but -can- he affect what we do in the same turn?

This morning in the shower, I had two realizations:

1. The "An action may not affect something created during that same turn." is not necessary, since the other rules aren't having the expected effects.

2. A new rule for 'direct assists':  If the 'assistant' rolls 1, they give -1, if they roll 6 they give +1 and otherwise they move the action 1 step towards their roll.  I will now adjust my rolls post to indicate the new effect.  And the OP to show the new rules.

I have an action up, don't I? Unless turning it from icy mountains to snowy fields is a free one or those are the specific mountains The Shifter is trying to affect. I thought the radioactive mountains were all around the equator.

Edited to specify region exactly, though.

All actions are in, but I will only start calculating the turn in my lunch break.  Still two hours to go.

Turn results are available.  I will update the 'map' a bit later today.

Nerjin attempted two actions, but I ignored the second one.  It overlapped with Argentia's action anyway.

Next turn processing opportunity occurs in 24.5 hours.

EDIT: I think we can test getting rid of the Bold Orange now.  Just make it Bold.

To protect them, try convincing the others to act in specific regions, rather than globally; smaller actions are smaller risks, and there is more to lose now.
