      It was a feature when Legendary had them on Alpha. Which was a parent company that owned Geek and Sundry.
      That company, and the chinese Corp that owned it, really didn't understand the audience and ruined a number of things under their management.
      That being said it was a fun little feature. I tend to like that kind of transparency and accessibility in Actual Plays.
      Though with the kerfuffle and the amount of time they've done with out it I don't see CR bringing it back.
      At least not without a lot of fan input demanding it.

    Does the sea turtle technically count? It couldn't attack Fjord because it was in the water, but it still was faster than and tried to attack their ship, which Fjord was captaining.
    And this most recent time, I think, is technically the first time turning something into a turtle has worked, and they still kind of had to struggle with it.

      You mean the Dragon Turtle? Technically they're Dragon type, not Beast type so it's more accurate to think of it as a dragon than a turtle. IIRC they did polymorph it into a regular turtle to outpace and escape it but it didn't attack anyone in that form. I might be remembering that encounter wrong though. It's been a while.

      @@Cyb3rM1nd Yeah they turned it into a sea turtle and then discovered that the sea turtle was faster than their ship when it kept trying to attack them. They ended up eventually turning it into a sea slug to get away from it. Polymorph never seems to work the way they intend it to on the first try.
