Some Questions People Have Pondered...
Q: How does stun work?
A: Stun means that you cannot act at all for the duration of stun, which may be in actions, rounds, or even longer periods of time. All actions against you are successful unless a 1 is rolled.
Q: Could you clarify action management?
A: It is generally an either/or proposition. As a character at tier D10, you can either take 2 actions at full strength, or 5 actions at a -1 downshift of dice. You can be at your best for a few actions, or water yourself down and spread yourself a little thin. It really comes down to the strategy of one foe where you want to concentrate attacks, or a number of lesser foes (or a time when you need to add some movement to your action management that round).
Q: Can I stack impervious and invulnerable?
A: No. other defensive gifts (like resist) will stack, but I always saw impervious/invulnerable as either/or.
House Rules: Here are some rules I've been using to keep things keeping on...
Any 'super hero' (however you choose to define that - I'm going with expert tier or better) is able to deal, minimally, 1 point of damage with any successful attack. While you are still bulletproof against mooks firing their D6 pistols, the young archer apprentice with the D8 bow still has a chance of piercing your defenses every attack. I'm limiting this that any side or secondary effects requiring you to deal damage are not triggered unless you actually roll 1 or more points; this freebie point does not bring any automatic benefits with it, and is just an attaboy to keep at it. A superhero who hits another superhero in combat does something, even if it's quite minimal.
