The cards states: "Spend 1 energy to get 1 extra die roll". So on a turn, can a monster, who say has four energy, decide to use the power of the card four times? I am understanding the card to act this way, or is it that you can once get one extra roll per turn?

Thanks to whoever responds!

This is only a guess/opinion but I'm going to say it's 1 for 1 (only one extra roll per turn) only because if you could just pump it up that would be overpowered players could end up with 10+ extra rolls and that could result in 10+ smashes which could take a player out that is full health in one turn

I think no matter what the answer is, you still only get one dice resolution (i.e. 6 dice result). You don't get to actually apply the results of an entire new roll. You get to improve your role to get what you want, then apply it.

I think perhaps it could be unlimited, as long as you've got the energy. One energy, one die is a pretty high price and should only be used to "tip" a result that is one die away.
