chain lightning
« on: September 03, 2015, 11:56:58 PM »
i turn it in every sens and allways see 2 ways to understand it:
"since an attack cannot be reduced below 1 die, CL keep going as long as it deals damage..."

does it mean that it keeps going 5d-4d-3d-2d-1d-1d-1d-1d-1d... ad aeternam?
or
does it mean that after 1d damages it should deal 0d so it stops?

from the FAQ:

"Since an attack cannot be reduced below 1 die, Chain Lightning can keep going as long as it deals damage and
has available legal targets.

that's what i read, but does it mean that it won't go under 1d or does it mean that when it goes under 1d it stops?

It will not go under 1 Dice, but it does have to cause damage and have a legal target.....

ok!
I understand fast when I'm long explained!
that's what I missed: it has to make damages!

thanks.
