[QUOTE="Relique du Madde, post: 5229273, member: 42169"] Correct Unarmed attacks (standard attacks) does damage equal to your STR. This is considered non lethal damage. This mean's you can pull your punches to do less damage. Strike [Bashing] does damage equal to your Powers Level OR STR +1 (which ever is higher. Damage one by Strike [Bashing] can be lethal or non-lethal. When you use Stike [Bashing] non lethally, you can pull your punches. Strike [Slashing] does damage equal to the power level regardless of STR. All damage done by Strike [Slashing] is lethal and can not be pulled. Hense the scene from the X-Force Annual. Bonus powers are only used for randomly generated characters and are a huge misnomer. What they do is this: They replace a power you rolled with one related to one of the powers you rolled. So.. for example: Lets say you rolled: Swinging and Elemental Control. Elemental control allows you to gain additional power effects as bonus powers. With this in mind, you can to ditch Swinging to obtain more options for for Elemental Control power. It costs one point. Think of it in terms of M&M's alternate powers/extras. You have your "main power" that has an explosive extra and a alternate power that does the same damage but doesn't have the explosive extra. ICONS's advancement is set in terms of extra determination [s](which could be traded off for an extra point that you can spend however you want). If you trade in a gained point of determination, all your forms get that extra point to spend.[/s]] Looks like I'm allowing for one reroll for extremely crappy powers. :D [/QUOTE]
