Hi all,
We're in the middle of the session and are having a disagreement on Edge (specifically page 67 under the header "Spending Edge", bullet point #3).

The book states:
QUOTE
You may re-roll all of the dice on a single test that did not score a hit.


Does this mean:

a) The player must roll NO hits. He then can spend a point of Edge to re-roll all the dice.

OR

b) The player rolls. He may get some hits. By spending a point of Edge, he gets to reroll all the dice that aren't hits. (like how Karma pool used to work in 3rd Edition).

Thanks for the help,

JKL

I believe it's meant to read like "all dice that did not score a hit." IE, option B (you reroll your failures/losers/bad dice).

i'd go with B as well, if it was A, i'd think it'd read

".... a test that did not score a single hit."

just my opinion
