My good friend and I were playing a small game. It was for the journeyman league. I have been doing this for some time and that is when Karchev casts UNEARTHLY RAGE which allows you to get boosted attack and damage rolls. When I cast that and charge in with either Karchev or a warjack you get a boosted damage roll for the charge. Is this allowed. My friend says no that you can not double boost any rolls what so ever regardless and I argue that this would be a special case since it is a spell as well as a charge boost and you are not paying focus to actually boost the attack, which I understand that you can not double boost by paying for it. Please help us solve this dilemma.

Your friend is correct, you can never boost a roll more than once, doesn't matter if the boost comes from a spell, focus, a charge or any other possible reason, a roll can only be boosted once.

PhantomViper is correct, just note that there are abilities that give an additional die. You cannot Boost a dice roll that is already boosted, but Additional dice are not boosted dice, so you can roll those with boosted and/or Additional dice.

For example: If a model has weapon master, they roll and additional die for that weapon damage. So if this model charges another model, and hits, it will do 2d6 + 1d6 (boosted die from the charge) + 1d6 (weapon master additional die

Another example from Hordes side, the caster Zaal's feat creates ancestral rage tokens which allow a friendly faction model to boost melee attack or damage rolls. Our friendly beast Molik Kharn has weapon master on his weapons.

If Molik Kharn walks up to a model and attacks, and hits, he can do 2d6 damage + 1d6 additional die for weapon master, + 1d6 boosted by spending an ancestral rage token.

If Molik Kharn charges a model and hits, he does 2d6 + 1d6 addional die for weapon master + 1d6 for boosted charge. He CANNOT spend an ancestral range token for boosted damage, because the charge already boosts the damage.

sorry this went long, was trying to make sure i found a couple of good examples.
