Dance with the Distant Partner

Cost: 3 motes per direction eliminated
Duration: Instant
Type: Simple
Minimum Dexterity: 4
Minimum Essence: 3
Prerequisite Charms: Sword Deflecting Technique

Eliminate one direction an opponent can move per turn. Directions that can be eliminated are towards you, away from you, to the left, to the right, or remaining where they are.
An opponent who moves (or fails to move) in an eliminated direction is hit by a number of ranged attacks equal to the Lunar's Essence, each with Dexterity converting to successes.

Should Rain of Iron Doom read "you may take a ranged attack against each target with 10xessence yards"? That is, "anyone" could be read as only one attack, or one per in-range target. Which is it? And can it apply to structures?

It's anyone you want to attack, which can potentially be everyone. That is, if you, and your ally, and twenty DB are in melee combat, you can use Raind of Iron Doom to hit the twenty DB without hitting yourself.

And I'm gonna neg on the structures for the moment, but I could see a few other arguements either way. DS
