Just a brief clarification, please: According to 6E2 74, a Combined Attack lets me use multiple powers against a single target -- once -- without suffering any of the penalties normally associated with the Multiple Attack maneuver.
What I'm not clear on is whether I would then make individual Attack Rolls for each power involved or just a single one that decides whether or not the entire 'batch' hits or misses; the section on Combined Attacks never actually says one way or the other. On the one hand, a Combined Attack is a "type of Strike", which argues for the latter interpretation; on the other, the example robot firing a blast from the one hand and a laser from the other muddies the issue because rolling once for each would seem to make more intuitive sense here.
So, which is it? One roll per power or one for the entire attack at once?
