The 10 trollkin are toast, period, barring a complete run totally scrwed up dice rolling (yeah, *I* could roll a string of fumbles/failures like that, but how many people have *my* lousy dice luck?). There is no way that the contest is anywhere close to even. An Ambush, or creative magic use, might even out the odds, but as it stands 10 5w opponents can't take down a single 10w3 without a run of luck.

No, the best trollkin roll is compared to the *fully-penalized* Balastar roll. You don't worry about his individual success vrs each trollkin, but his overall success against the group (Since he chose to attack 6, it's his own damn fault if he blows it). Also, it's a pain in the ass trying to figure out those -3's sequentially. ("...suffers a cumulative penalty of -3 for each extra opponent.")
Balastar attacking six trollkin in one shot has a -15 mod, for 15w2, and the trollkin get six rolls at 5w to compare against it.
