defence question

[barriecritzer]

I know a block vs a double strike only stops the first strike, does a defence work the same way?

Example if a force master double strikes a guardian angel and the guardian angel makes her defence roll does it stop the entire attack or just the first strike?

From the rule book (page 24): "if you are successful, the attack is completely avoided (it “misses” the target). No dice are rolled. The attack still takes place and costs the attacker its action, but it has no effect and no attack dice are rolled (skip to Step 5: Additional Strikes)."

Therefore, it stops only the first strike.

Thanks we were trying to find it yesterday after an all day mage wars marathon and everyone was pretty brain fried by then
