Omnitron dual lazer

Hi,

Thanks to the earlier Omnitron posts we're pretty clear on all the ruling issues we encountered with him.
I just want to check the rules for his dual lazer power (not sure the exact name).
It says he may attack two different targets.
So the questions are:
Are these two actions or one
Does the player roll for each attack or use one dice roll for both
If an aim is spent is this applicable to both attacks or just one?

It's one roll, the dice apply to all targets*, however any tokens spent only apply to one target designated before the dice are rolled.

 

*The same applies to any multi-target attack

Aim would be designated before the roll, attack+1 tokens would be applied before the rolling of defense portion, and only apply to the current target.

Does the aim apply to the attack as a whole (both targets) or is it declared for an individual target of the attack?

This was answered above. Aim only applies to one target

Skippy's answer seemed ambiguous and possibly contradicting matchstick's so I wanted tomake sure. Thanks for the clarity.

Sorry, I can see where the wording was confusing.  My point was that the Attack+1 tokens are used after the attack dice are rolled, in everything else Matchstickman was correct.

After the "e".
