Well at the tourney last night a question came up about quake.
If I use the hulk and pick up a object and quake. Does the object add to what damage hulk can do?
and some other things that confused us.
arcade and gorgon are in base contact.
Is arcade allowed to out anything on gorgon?
and would arcade be able to blow up a object that a character is carring?
AND!!!!!!!!!!
can arcade blow up a object if it is in base contact of him?

QUAKE (OPTIONAL): Give this character a close combat action; until the attack has been resolved, its damage value becomes 2 if it is greater than 2. Make a single attack roll and compare the result to the defense values of all opposing characters adjacent to this character. Each character that takes damage from this attack is knocked back.

SUPER STRENGTH (OPTIONAL): When this character moves as part of a move action, power action, or free action, it can pick up an object as a free action and carry it. The object must be either in a square the character occupies or in an adjacent square. This character can use an object it picks up as a weapon. If this power is lost or countered while this character is holding an object, immediately place the object in the square this character occupies. This power can’t be canceled while this character is carrying an object. When this character makes a close combat attack targeting blocking terrain, a wall, or an object, modify its damage value by +2 for the attack; if the character is carrying an object when it makes the attack, remove the object from the game.

Using Objects in a Close Combat Attack
A character holding an object and making a close
combat attack must use the object in the attack, as
shown in Figure 20, unless the character is using a
power that will deal 0 or no damage. If a character is
using a light object in a close combat attack, modify
the character’s damage value by +1 for the attack. If
a character is using a heavy object in a close combat
attack, modify the character’s damage value by +2
for the attack.
I'd say no because Quake is a close combat action and using an object refers to close combat attack
I can desire to dream cant I?

Once again I say that I won't be completely happy until we've done every character in HeroClix.
No. The object does nothing and is not used in the Quake attack.
And just to let you all know where this comes from, the General E&C document has this:
On page 37, modify the first sentence of the third paragraph to say “…unless the character is using a power that will deal 0 or no damage or a power that will affect multiple opposing characters.”
Which was added to the section about using objects in close combat attacks via Super Strength. The RA has also mentioned this in a couple places on the WK forums.
In other words, if you use Quake the object can't be used.
