[IAWA] Advantage dice questions

<< < (2/3) > >>

Lars M. Nielsen:
Thanks for the answers.

One more question. When do you lose an advantage die? The kind you get from winning dice rolls.

lumpley:
At the end of the round.

But, like, if you won the advantage again, you don't have to throw the die back in the bowl and fish it out again, you can just hang onto it.

Valvorik:
If you're in conflict of 2:1, say above A is against B and C.

In round 1, assume A wins (not doubling) against B and C.

In round 2, A has an advantage die to use rolling against B, A also has an advantage die to use against C.

Assume A wins against B, loses against C (again marginal).

A keeps advantage over B, loses it to C.

In round 3 (final round under rules), A rolls an advantage dice against B, and C rolls an advantage dice against A.

Q1 - Is the above summary correct?

2nd scenario, same as above but in round 2, assume C beats A before B and A roll their conflict.

Q1 - Correct that here A is out, C is the winner who negotiates with A.  A and B do not continue rolling the conflict.

lumpley:
When you roll an advantage die, add it to your highest die. It doesn't matter who you're comparing it with - A never has a different roll vs B than she does vs C.

In round 2 of scenario 1, A rolls one advantage die and adds it to her highest die. B and C don't.

In round 3 of scenario 1, A rolls an advantage die, C does too, and B doesn't.

(Imagine a sword fight. Imagine that A is using her advantage over B to keep B between her and C. She doesn't have the advantage over C, but she can use her advantage over B to neutralize C's advantage over her.)

In scenario 2, correct.

Valvorik:
Thanks for the explanation, and for the example, that will help players/gms describe matters properly.
