[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 256687, member: 2011"] Where? Go back and re-read the entire thread. You have only stated that it is ambiguous, you have yet to state why. Semantics on your part. Just because there are no rules on something does not mean that it cannot be done in the game. That's what DMs are for. Go to page 148-150 and you will find no rules on targeting spells onto spells. Go to the Dispel Magic description and you will note that it states that you CAN target a spell. There are no explicit rules elsewhere in the book on how to do it or what is allowed and what is disallowed, but the spell description states that it can be done WITH THIS SPELL. So, as you eloquently put it, the ONLY place to find information on this is within the description of Dispel Magic. There it states that you can do it and it states the game mechanic (D20 + …) on how to do it. Since it is there, how can you state that it is disallowed according to the rules? Where? Which rules? Back up your statement. There are no explicit RULES on going backwards or forwards in time, but can a Wish spell allow it? Maybe, depending on the DM. Dispel Magic states that it immediately dispels magic, but the Fly spell explicitly states that the magic is not immediately dispelled. Exceptions to the normal rules via spell descriptions are explicitly allowed in the game. In this case, the Dispel Magic spell explicitly states that it can be used to dispel a single spell, hence, it can. You have yet to quote something from the book that states otherwise. [/QUOTE]
