This game is super cool, and i'm really excited to run it with my group. I've got a few questions about stuff tho before i start, i dont wanna make any big mistakes.

Do chaos tokens need to be used on skills that equal exactly 4? if so, why is Ogre the odd demon out with no guaranteed way to use their chaos token?

Also, with the Bomb enemy type, it's listed that they're extremely dangerous, but I don't see how apply pressure is that strong of a blow-up move, the 1 weakness tokens the bombs apply at the start of their turns would go away the second the players connect with a hit right? Does the gm just need to hope the players mess up and stock themselves up with iron and power tokens?

Chaos tokens function as a 4 in your dice pool, so they can still be used for 1+, 2+, and 3+ actions, too, not just 4+. Ogre is intended to use this 4 on a Throw or Grapple, but can also use it on Watch Your Step just fine.

The Bomb's Reversal Form lets them take their Actions at any time. If a player in range EVER builds up tokens to do something, like a bunch of Speed tokens to run around, a bunch of Iron to block with, or a bunch of Power for a deadly crush, a Bomb can instantly punish them with an explosive Apply Pressure.

Alternatively, pair the bomb alongside a Flametongue or other Winter stance to really shove tokens on everyone for you. They're a Stooge, they are not meant to be used by themselves.
