Mutants and Masterminds 3E variant rule question.
So, I've been told there's a variant rule in Mutants and Masterminds 3rd edition. One were whenever you have a character wtih a high enough strenght or damage or whatever hit someone/thing, they automatically get knocked back/around by the blow.
Does anyone know if this is a real variant rule, and if so, what book and page number it can be found in/on?"I Burn!"

Re: Mutants and Masterminds 3E variant rule question.
Not sure that's actualy a variant rule, as that sounds like linking an Affliction and/or a Move Object to your STR attacks.
Yes, I am slightly egomaniac. Why didn't you ask?

It's a variant rule. Gamemaster's Guide, page 192.
If your game is not using that variant, you can get a similar effect with a linked Move Object/Affliction, yes, although you'll need your GM to do some rulings in order to get that to work (Affliction can knock people prone but not otherwise move them, and neither Move Object nor the standard grab rules ever talk about how throwing people works).Avatar by GryffonDurime. Thanks!
