Hello all,

How high can the Super Attribute/Skill powers increase a given die? The box that talks about strength maxes out at d12+12, but is that the limit for everything? That seems a bit absurd. I mean a guy with d12+8 Vigor is going to soak everything that comes at him...

There isn't really a limit other than of declining overall effect. A character who buys a d12+8 in an Attribute has spent about 1/4 of his maximum points on one thing; that's a pretty major commitment.

Well, specifically, he would Soak a minimum of 2 wounds barring a critical failure, and of course, he can only Soak if he has a Benny to spend, so he can't literally soak everything that comes at him.
