[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 899524, member: 2829"] You misinterpret. What I meant by "turn" was the dragon's turn in the round. Given the context I was using for "turn", which is the same as the quote from the SRD, they mean the same thing. That was the context of which I was speaking. You are correct that I don't agree. I've stated why, but I'll get to that again in a second. "Waiting to do" means that you "can't do" yet. Why? You're waiting. If you weren't waiting, you'd just do it. But you can't. Because you're waiting. You are stating you don't have to "wait to do" to "wait". In your example, the dragon never waited. He breathed two rounds in a row without "waiting to do". You can't do both. It's OK. I know what you're saying. :) No. Here's how I define it, so to speak. You get one round in the initiative count. You can't take actions except during your round in the initiative count (there are exceptions though, when specifically called out, such as speaking, but this isn't one of them). At the end of your round, you have to wait until your round comes around again before you can do anything. Thus... I know how you and Pielorinho are defining "wait one round". I simply disagree with your assessments of the rules. You get one round in the initiative count. That's it. The rest of the time, you do nothing. I already knew the basis of the disagreement. It was clear to me where the two of you stood. As I said, I simply disagreed. [/QUOTE]
