[QUOTE="Lerysh, post: 6412276, member: 6783796"] I've had no problem just incorporating Delay into the rules. We use Init cards so the turn order is pretty easily fluid. If you delay your turn you get your card, and if something comes up that you want to act, you go into the Init order BEHIND the current card. They finish their turn, delaying character starts his. None of this interrupt malarky, interrupts are gone for good reason. The party has a vested interest in letting certain things happen in certain order, like the fighter with his Plate and Shield going into the dungeon first. It's punitive to make characters who roll well waste an action on something like Dodge when really they just want to follow the fighter into the breech. It winds out working out the same anyway, just with fast characters missing an action, so why not allow delay? Here's an interesting idea I just thought of: It's possible to use your Reaction on your own turn (See Shield spell and drawing OA's). Maybe to delay you use your reaction in order to take an action later in the round. More complicated than natural delay tho, so why bother. [/QUOTE]
