[QUOTE="Bolares, post: 6850620, member: 6790082"] I think this is one of those cases that the rules are not decisive about. The doubt about casting a spell with your action and another one with your reaction is clear, the system allows it. But the text of counterspell states that you cast while the target is casting his spell ("you attempt to interrupt a creature in the process of casting a spell"), not after the fireball goes out as some people stated. So here is where it falls to DM decision, if you believe the mage has the power to cast an counterspell, to counter the sorccerers counterspell while he is casting a fireball, you aloow it, if you think thats to much you say no. Remember guys, this is the 5th eddition, rulings not rules :) [/QUOTE]
