Now there is conflicting reports. ......
The book says if you declare 4 actions, that -4 to your die pool. It also says above that for 4 actions it's only a -3 penalty.

I have always gone with -1D after the first action, therefore 4 actions equales -3D to each action.
I wouldn't worry too much about the details though. I rather like the way you resolved that scenario anyway and that's all that really matters.

Sounds logical to me, considering everyone gets at least a single action with no penalty.
Now... tell me more about how awesome I am...

I run the same "rule" MAPs apply to all actions, with -1D for each action past the first with no limits
I do this because it gives the players the option to do lots of what they are good at. Or the option to think they are going to do lots of what they can do before they realize that all of a sudden there back down to normal levels because of MAP's
Did that sentence make any sense? |

Perfect sense.
A character with a Blaster skill of 9D can pretty much tag anybody at Medium to Long Range everytime. Such a character can start doing trick shots like tagging 5 guys at once (fire rate permitting) or s/he can hit smaller targets like blast door switches.
