Man, I think I saw the answer and I cannot for the life of me find it.

Player asked about INTIMIDATION causing doubt with stunt, but causing strength damage by the old version of book we have. Was there an errata to skill INTIMIDATE is tied to or does it really do STR damage with fails on push?

I don't see it in errata but maybe I missed it? Thanks.

I checked v1 to v4 and in all versions Intimidate is the specialty skill for Enforcers (a strength skill) that forces the target to either attack you or give you what you want. Stunts give Doubt trauma (trauma to Empathy) to the target.

This is a strength skill and works as any other skill. If you push it, you may take trauma, damage trauma (trauma to strength) in this case since Intimidate is a strength skill.

Thank you sir. Player's argument was interesting and sort of logical, but I said it was likely correct.
