Advancement tokens may only be used once.

And only by the players that hold them?

B. Permissable Actions
Any player may use an Advancement token they own to temporarily double all of their Avatar's stats. Any stat doubled in this manner is halved (rounded down) at the end of the current checking period.

Technically the stats belong to the players, not the Avatars. Avatars don't get stats.

Any player may use an Advancement token to cause all Avatars in Cubes orthagonally or diagonally adjacent [[player's choice]] to the Cube their Avatar is in to be destroyed with a probability of 1/5. This probability is computed on a Cube-by-Cube basis, so that if mulitple Avatars are in one affected Cube, they are either all destroyed or all not destroyed.

What does "diagonally adjacent" mean in this context? There are twelve cubes adjacent to a cube by shared face edges, and eight more via shared corners; do you really want to let somebody nuke 20 cubes (almost a third of the Arena) in one move?

Any player may use an Advancement token to make three legal Board Game moves in one checking period. [[This includes creating Pieces]]

Any player may use an Advancement token to draw four cards.

Any player may use an Advancement token to gain one of any type of Permanent Glory.

Why would anyone ever do this? They'd lose 20 points a point of PH at the end of the nweek anyway, so the best they could hope for is to break even on Honor and lose 20 points for nothing.
