I'm sorry, I should have clarified I was only speaking of examples where an opponent _can_ negate a possibility expenditure. Damage negation possibilities that can't be countered wouldn't be relevant to this question .

So... you can or can't keep spending possibilities on the same action if an opponent counters your first one, under the 1.5 rules?

Page 109 of the 1.5 rules makes it kind of seem like making the additional die roll is inherent in spending the possibility. No dice roll, no spending. Hence our question.
