Re: Day of the Octopus Rolls
Here I asked you guys to list your totals and effect dice and then I forgot to do it.
The goons have a total of 7 and an effect die of D4 (the default).
Electro has a total of 14 and an effect die of D12. Yikes!A System-Independent Creative Community:

Re: Day of the Octopus Rolls
That's 20/d10. Does a Heroic Success on a Reaction allow me to step up the Effect Die, for Saw That Coming?

Also, I meant Superhuman Reflexes up there, not Superhuman Strength.

Re: Day of the Octopus Rolls
That's 11, d10 for Mysterio's P-Stress, d12 for Moistened Mysterio.
Spending 1 PP for the extra Effect Die. 1 hitch for the Watcher.

Hercules action 3
Trying to impose a 'terrified' complication on the henchmen.

Re: Day of the Octopus Rolls
I forgot to roll for resist the gunfire from the goons. Here goes.
Affiliation: 1D10 Buddy I think, how people are grouped up is kind ambiguous to me. But Loki should be in the line of fire with Hercules. (1d10)[3]
Distinction: 1D4 News crew. Can't think of any ways Hercule's distinctions or scene distinctions would help here with such little reaction time. (1d4)[4]
Power: Godlike Durability 1D12. (1d12)[1]
Specialty: Combat Expert D10. If carnage can use to resist laser blasts I think it can be used to resist bullets. (1d10)[4]

Team affiliation: (1d6)[1]
Smoke and Mirrors distinction: (1d8)[3]
Hiding in Plain Sight power: (1d8)[3]
Smoke Cloud asset: (1d8)[8]
(I'm okay with Sleeper using this on his roll, because I'm not entirely happy with how I set up Mysterio, but I don't think I'm good with him just "using up" Mysterio's asset. If you want to remove someone else's assets, complications, or stress, that's an action.)

Forgot to add the hostage complication to Electro's roll:

The total will be whatever the two highest dice are and the effect die the highest die type left over.

Re: Day of the Octopus Rolls
With permission decide to decide Loki's action I will try to have Loki make an asset that will be boosted with a plot point to stick around for more than a turn. The illusion will be spiderman who can either distract enemies or calm down some hostages so they can be helped.

Doom pool resisting Hercules to save the hostages:
(4d6)[5][1][5][1](12)
(1d8)[3](3)
(I've removed 1d8 because I think that's the effect of Kaine's reducing the doom pool - his d10 being larger than a d8 and his total beating mine - but I'm having trouble finding that page in the rulebook at the moment.)
Mysterio defending against Sleeper:
(I'm not rolling for Electro because the roll of 1 means that Sleeper only ends up with three dice, so I don't think he is actually able to attack Electro)

Re: Day of the Octopus Rolls
I think that's a total of 10 with an effect die of D4 against Hercules, and a total of 13 with effect dice of D6 against Kaine and Sleeper (I guess the smoke cloud isn't big enough to reach Hercules).
