A bound spell ie lvl 4 will need a roll of 4 to suceed, so even if 3 dice were thrown for a total of say 10, the 'total' is still 4?

If so, as a dwarf, you would only need a 2 to stop it due to +2 to dispel?

Against a bound level 3, would a roll of 1 stop it, or is 1 an auto fail (like everything else)?

Finally, can this really mess up an OK magic phase due to the low numbers to cast and the dwarfs +2?

Thanks for your attention.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498299.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498299.page GMT
To dispel, your natural dice total (aka before any modifiers) needs to be a 3 or higher or it automatically fails regardless of the final value. The Dwarf player will have to roll a 3+ on a single dice before adding any modifiers just like everyone else.

This is why you do not see many single dice casting and dispelling attempts anymore, you have a straight 1/3 chance of failure and that wizard not being able to cast or dispel the rest of the phase. No, this would not keep the dwarf player from getting a +2 if he failed on subsequent attempts as it is the army attempting to dispel, not an individual wizard.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498323.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498323.page GMT
So even a bound lvl 4, a dwarf needs to match the enemy cast value, but a 2 would not suffice as this is a fail (even if they rolled a 4 on 1 dice). So really a dwarfs +2 advantage lessens the more dice are used by the opponent.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498376.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498376.page GMT
A natural 1 or 2 (so a 1 or 2 on one dice, or double 1's on 2 dice) always fails to cast or dispel.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498464.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498464.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498783.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/350025/2498783.page GMT
