If Vader has 5 FPs and already moved and subsequently gets attacked 5 different times by 5 different enemies in a round. And the enemies are attacking him with nades. Can vader use a fp to reroll each failed save that round? Im asking because each attack is a different attack

A character that doesn't have MOTF can spend force points once per turn. Meaning once per any characters turn. So yes, as long as none of those saves take place during the same characters turn then he can do that. Assuming he doesn't have master of the force 2 or 3 and that he has enough force points.

Wow really? 5 separate fps in a single round?

you could use 100 fps in a round, assuming you have that many to use, and you only use as many as your MotF allows you to use in a single character's turn

It seems like the misunderstanding is between Turn, Phase, and Round. A Turn is when you activate a single character. There are 2 Turns in every Phase (except for the first Phase of the Round, and any time you have only 1 character to activate), which is each time a single player activates characters. A Round is most simply the Phases that take place between two rolls of initiative.

There is no limit at all on the number of force points one can spend in a single Round or Phase. You can only spend force points once per Turn, unless you have something that lets you use more (most commonly MotF, but some other abilities allow it also). So if 5 characters take 5 shots spread over 5 turns, you can use 1 FP on each of those turns. If one character takes 5 shots in a single turn, you can only use 1 force point unless you have an ability that allows more.

Also... using grenades is not an attack. It can cause damage, but if you call it an attack you will almost certainly confuse yourself later. There are many things that replace attacks. Some of them (like Lightsaber Assault) generate attacks. Others (like Grenades) do not. The abilities themselves, though, are not attacks in either case.

by definition, an attack is anything that requires a roll to hit the opponent vs. his defense as opposed to requiring a save
