Oh my gosh THANK YOU! This 100% MADE my day. I have just been fantasizing about the super-quick card version of this, where your character has flippable cards: Adventure stats on one side (all the dice, so you can place a token on and move it as you go down) and Action on the other. Tricks would go on cards, too, so laying things out would be simple!
Was JUST imagining a big boss special ability - "Guard" - where if the attacker rolled under 5, the "guard" parts of the boss (the crab's claws, the giant's shield or armor) would take the damage intended for another part. Hoping I get the excuse to develop more!
