That sort of like the original Star Wars RPG -- you can try one action at normal chances, but if you want to a second, you have to roll extra die. If you try a third, you have to roll two extra dies, Four actions, three extra dies. You can continue along this line, which almost inevitably leads to Catastrophic failure -- but theoretically you can do anything you want in a round.
I use D10s in damage rolls instead of d6s.
