My guess is you've got something like "Attack fails and no damage is done and the shield takes 1 pt of damage", or on another row, "Attack succeeds but is blocked, roll your damage to see if it gets through the parrying weapon or shield, which takes 2 pts of damage anyway". It all needs a bit of clarification.

Thanks for clueing me in on that, Sarah. I think I saw your original questions and then promptly forgot about them. The ol' memory ain't what it used to be

We'll wait and see what the mighty Jason has to say. But I suspect you're right, or very close to it, anway.
