Simultaneous Actions

A character can attempt to do more than one thing at a time. However, a character still only gets the one roll of the base dice to divide among the various actions.

• The division of Core Dice must be declared before the roll. The player can determine the how many of the Dice go to which action – they do not need to be balanced.
• Adjustments from Stats, Talents, Powers and Focii can be added to the relevant tasks, but only once. If a character with a ST+2 is attempting two different feats of strength, he still only adds two dice total for his ST.
• The dice assigned to a task cannot exceed what they would have been if the task were performed alone.
• Skill bonuses cannot be re-assigned – they always apply only to that particular skill.

The results are determined in order by highest total for each individual task – so long as that makes sense. Remember, the highest number describes first. If a character charges a foe with a broadsword, but the broadsword roll is higher than the move roll, it is OK to say that the move takes place on the broadsword roll, and then the broadsword attack takes place on the move roll. See Rule 5A. The combat results of the broadsword attack, though, would still be determined by the broadsword’s original total and vice-versa.
