how to count the damage when I'm attacking with multiple characters?
so...there is no official ruling yet?
On page 3 in that topic is official ruling confirmed by Caleb from FFG. It's rather long explanation

What is the X?
X is the amount of damage that a single dwarf character dealt to an enemy. It's doubled.

The link above doesnt seem to work for me, any chance somebody can paste the info into this thread please. Just not sure how this is applied when attacking with different characters not all dwarves. Which attackers are nullifying the enemies defense and which are dealing actual damage??

Aha here we are, did some digging on FFG forums: Caleb: Hi Booored, The way Heavy Stroke is intended to work depends on allowing players to choose which character's attack value is applied to the enemy's defense value. In your example, the optimal way to play Heavy Stroke would be to apply Aragorn's attack 3 to the enemy's 1 defense. So Aragorn is dealing 2 damage to the enemy and Dwalin is also dealing 2 damage, at which point you play Heavy Stroketo double Dwalin's damage and make it 4 for a total of 6 damage dealt to the enemy. Just to clarify it further, let's say Aragorn and Dwalin were attacking an enemy with 4 defense. The optimal way to play Heavy Stroke would be to apply all 3 of Aragron's attack plus 1 of Dwalin's to beating the enemy's defensse, then Dwalin would deal 1 damage to the enemy that could be double with Heavy Stroke for a total of 2. Hope that helps,
