[QUOTE="Delemental, post: 1881978, member: 5203"] The rules for action points state that you have to declare their use after a d20 roll has been made, but before you know the results. That's a bit tricky in PbP, especially since you're rolling the dice for us. As players we won't have the opportunity to see the roll and decide whether or not to use the point before the result of that roll is applied. Unless you wanted to resolved every situation like this: A bit tedious, yes? Perhaps a compromise might be that as players, if we're in a situation where we think we might want to spend an action point, we have to give you a criteria for when we'll use the point. Something like "if I roll less than 15" or "if I roll between 8 and 13" or "I use the point regardless of the d20 roll". So the above exchange would go more like this: Thoughts? Alternatives? Improvements? [/QUOTE]
