As far as battling goes, I usually do it in two to three round chunks. The exception being something equivalent to a 'boss' battle, or something large scale, in which case your more rapid instructions make it last out longer, post-wise.
More or less...throw out your initial action, plus one or two contingency motions, and they'll be projected on the battle as it rolls for the proceeding few rounds. Spellcasters, who may find themselves in a bit of a predicament, can notify me if they intend to use spells consecutively across this timeframe. However, you could also stack your plans with a few backups. i.e;
Magic Missile to start. Colour Spray if somebody gets too close. Shield on self by third round if previous condition not met.
Something like that...
People who post one or two lines in combat will find themselves short of limbs.
You've been warned...
Will update when either A: Brundel posts, or B: Thursday comes.
Keep up the admirable work you guys
