the blocks are one after the other, not simultaneous.

They are sequential so the 2nd defender to be attacked can assist the the 1st defender.

Yes, the second defender gets to assist the first MB. So it would be a 2-die block defenders choice unless you place someone in his tacklezone to take away his ability to assist. Remember each block is separate and works just like two regular block actions except each defender gets a +2 ST.

Assuming of course, that the defenders are indeed stronger than the attacker!

they are both 1 die blocks and you only get the second block if you are still standing

Way to resurrect a thread Smile
As Doubleskulls pointed out, they are not both one-die blocks. The first one is two-die-defender's-choice (5str vs 3str, +2 to defender for MBlock, +1 to defender for assist, hence 5 vs 6). If that block gets a push back or knock down, then the second block will be one-die. If it gets a both-down (but both have block, so the players all remain as before), then the second block will also be two-die-defender's-choice.

I stand corrected as it says MAKE EACH BLOCK AS NORMAL ....

but you can still get skills out the wazoo if you can pow them both and get CAS results\\\\ (and assist your multiblocker ...)

I dunno, I must have a bigger wazoo than you, but even with dice with 6 POWs on them, you're looking at 4SPP every two turns. With regular dice, more like 4SPPs every two games. That's not going to buy too many skills. You want piles of skills, then score touchdowns and get MVPs.

I think from a team perspective there aren't too many where the BG benefits from multiple block early on. Orcs & Human teams are best off with guard (assuming a normal skill), Minotaurs & Rat Ogres probably juggernaut. For flings and gobbos it might be a good choice since you can normally get enough assists and the other skills aren't so helpful.

can you use dauntless and multiblock combined? (DAUNTLESS: The strength of both players is calculated before any defensive or offensive assists are added but after all other modifiers) (MULTIBLOCK: Make each block in turn as normal except that each defender's strength is increased by 2)
so a dwarf slayer with multiblock will be able to roll dauntless to match the str?


"ahh I will multiblock but now your str is higher than mine ... dauntless now we are even" .... lolololol

From the rules under Multiple Block...

Multiple Block can be used instead of Frenzy, but both skills cannot be used together

I just wanted to check if it is possible to use Multiple block with stab?
I didn't think so since stab isinstead of throwing a block.
Is that correct?
