I noticed an example in the book, "It's All In The Reflexes", where Reflection is used against Thrown Objects.
What would you consider the Active Points for the thrown object? I was initially thinking 5 AP times the number of dice rolled, as in the Reflecting HtH Attacks notation. However, if the thrower's extra STR is higher than the number of dice for the object based on PD and BODY, one could argue that it would be tougher to reflect that person's thrown objects.
For example, Grond throws a telephone pole at Reflector. Since the pole (~330 kg) only requires 20 STR to lift, Grond has 70 extra STR and could do up to 14d6 with a suitably tough thrown object. However, the pole only has 5 PD, 5 BODY and can thus only do 10d6 before being reduced to splinters. Would the Reflection work against 50 AP (for the 10d6) or 70 AP (for the total extra STR)?
