I have an opinion about this, but I want to throw this out to the community...

Supergirl sits on her 18/impervious defense slot. She has one action token. An opposing figure outwits the defensive power and makes a successful attack against her. She theme probs the attack. Now what happens?

1)The attacker rolls again and following the resolution of the second attack, Supergirl takes another token and the pushing damage.

2)Supergirl is tokened and takes one pushing damage, turning up an invulnerability power that is not negated by outwit before the reroll caused by prob control.


I believe the correct answer is 1, because tokening and pushing damage take place after the resolution of the action and all effects caused by the action. The effect of a theme prob is the reroll of the attack, so the token and the push apply following the attack and the effects of the attack.

If answer is 2, it seems that this is a rather exploitable loophole to get out of outwit situations.

Your thoughts?

Neither answer is quite correct. Instead it is:

3) Supergirl is tokened. Following the resolution of the attack, Supergirl takes pushing damage.

Pushing damage is always applied at the end of an action, regardless of when during the action the token was added.

Thanks for the info, flatmatt.
