[OoC: No. You said, "If Jack steps toward the house, or launches an electrical attack..." He did not step toward the house and I considered you readying for an electrical "attack" as just that; an attack. Yes he did fire off a lightning bolt but he didn't attack anyone. Also, since you were waiting until he 'attacked' I figured you were purposely waiting until the last moment (someone possibly getting hurt) to reveal your readied action to gain some kind of advantage. Otherwise, why wait?]
[FYI: Marvel technically doesn't have readied actions or other D&D terminology but I do use those game mechanics simply because people are very familiar with the terms. So if there is a D&D game mechanic that you want to use, feel free to mention it and I will let you know if you can use it. In all my games I try to work with the players while trying to stay within the rules. I have no problem house ruling something if I think I makes sense.]
