To use it, you need to be standing next to 2 opposing players, and they also need to be standing next to each other. You add their strengths together, and make the block. If you get them down, you make an armour roll for both of them (2 separate rolls), and injury rolls where required. Dauntless is a killer skill here, but it can backfire easily - and don't try to use it on 2 very strong players, St3 is about the max IMO.
It is an ok skill! Usually only useful for Big Guys and Dauntless dudes though.. |

I know mighty blow is applied to both hits so I would imagine other skills/traits that modify the armor or injury roll are similarly applied (not sure about piling on though....)
Frenzy does not work with multiple block. If you chose to multiple block with a frenzying player you'll forgo the follow-up block. |

Like I said above, Frenzy and Multiple Block don't mix.
The two players don't assist against the blocker but in order for the blocker to receive an assist the supporting player can only be in one of the "victims" tacklezones (unless he has guard). In other words, the blocker treats the pair as one opponent, everyone else still considers them two. |

Yep. it works on a blitz. Basically, if you are going to throw a block, and two players are standing near each other, you can multiple block. |
