TreeQuest: Magitech (Riot Quest)
…But how else do people get animals to study? They find one, harmlessly kill it, then dissect it. A long dead body doesn't have the same properties that one shortly dead does. And I'm in the business of living things, not dead ones.
Good tree, that Robertson. We should all take a leaf out of his book, I tells ya.
You could try using life magic to study living creatures.
Would probably help with the "Nigerian Ducks Tree is being a creep again" issues.
On ethical grounds I would advise against this.

Wait-
Do you mean Robertson double-crit and got us Meta Magic?

Ignoring some of our Ally stuff:
32 dice - 17 successes - into: [X] Store Resources Against Future Need
21 dice - (10+10)*1.25 successes - into: [X] The Well-Ordered Mind (Magic Research)
19 dice - 10 successes - into: [X] Water/Fire Negacion (Magic Research)

2 dice - 1 success - into: [X] Rip and Tear
2 dice - 1+6.75 successes - into: [X] Monster Energy (Magic Biology Research) (Biology Research) (Magic) (Magic Research)

0 dice - 0+10 successes - into: [X] Upgrade the Mining Tree to Elder
0 dice - 0+10 successes - into: [X] Study the Talanburg Farmer
Dice Rolled=156; succeeded=70. +1 with rerolls. I guess the Success dice were feeling cranky this turn.
We had 191 dice last turn, but only 156 this turn. We have 3 fewer votes and 5 more write-ins this turn. Plus I haven't yet included Razzocnor's +2d. Some Ally stuff might grant +dice, too?
But I'm still a touch curious. If anyone feels like investigating and seeing if they can find a discrepancy, please do! If not, no problem - I might or might not get around to it.

No results on write-in actions yet?

Well, we made some decent progress on A Well-Ordered mind. One more turn of rolls like that and it'll be done.
I might have been the only one that did so this turn but some trees now have the Reliable trait and no longer roll dice for actions.

Nope.
That's a write-in. Handled separately.

The dice are still feeling moderately cranky.
Marta Yarrow's never going to get a love-life at this rate. Well - no, that's not really true. She just had three bad first meetings in a row, is all.
By contrast, Connect to Materson is either done or well-in-progress and Truth/Lie Negacion unlocked amazingly.
Adventuring was a success, but an unusually-difficult one. Working with the Ants had a diplomatic faux-pas (with the Ants, I think, though I'm not 100% sure), but the science side had a significant breakthrough.
There's a bunch of more moderate stuff - "nothing special unlocked but successes added to relevant project" or "no effect at all - progress or penalty."

So my sound omake didn't unlock Sound for me?

It did, but you had a pair of below-average rolls (Omake: gives a second roll; best wins). Then I applied the rest of the Omake bonus, and... I think you unlocked it, but it's going to be a slightly longer grind than expected.So my sound omake didn't unlock Sound for me?

So did I flop on studying the Sensing Trees or was that included in scientific breakthrough?
