Question: Is there a particular reason you chose to make Levin Fury's dice pool based on Marksmanship instead of Thrown despite the mention of hurling lightning bolts directly?
Well, blow me down, that's a mistake - sorry! Levin Fury should be activated with a roll of either Marksmanship or Thrown. It's correct in the in-house rules compendiums we keep for players, but seems to have slipped past me on the website. Fixed now!
The addition of Marksmanship was a no-brainer for us, because there are actually just as many thunder-gods who shoot their lightning as there are those who physically hurl it. Zeus and Baal throw thunderbolts directly and Thor throws his hammer and Perun his axe or apple for the same effect, while archers like Indra, Marduk, Lugh or Illapa shoot lightning from a cosmic sling or bow (often the rainbow). We figured there was no reason to mandate that Scions have to be locked into either style of thunder-godding.
I love it when you guys catch our mistakes. Keeps our heads from inflating too far.
