In the rule “The Building”, replace these bullets in the Build atomic action:
* Roll a DICEN, where N is the number of _ currently in the Building Contents, times 25.
* Decrease Building Stability by the Wobble. (The Wobble for this action is equal to the result of its die roll, minus any Focus spent during it, to a minimum of zero.)
with these bullets:
* Roll a DICEN, where N is the number of _ currently in the Building Contents, times 25. If the result is less than half of N, roll another DICEN and use the larger of the two dice rolls as the result, otherwise use the single roll as the result.
* Decrease Building Stability by the Wobble. (The Wobble for this action is equal to the result of the step above, minus any Focus spent during it, to a minimum of zero.)
In the subrule “Building Contents”, if two columns exist with the heading Properties in the table, remove the rightmost of these columns from the table. If two rows exist that contain “Rebar” in the first column of the table, remove one instance of these rows from the table.
Building is not going to be risky for a long time due to the decrease in Stability being a uniform distribution. Let’s weight it so that we’re more likely to get higher results and get to those exciting Jenga moments a bit sooner.
I also added some cleanup for the Building Contents where the Properties column was duplicated and the Rebar row was duplicated.
Lulu: she/her
Doesn’t this make it more predictable instead of less *because* it’s a bell curve distribution?
