Multiple Block - Attacker down question

Hello there!

What happens if a multiple blocker gets the "attacker down " symbol, and both opponents dispose of skills which modify either armour roll or injury roll.
Do they
a) Each roll for armour and injury seperately and add their respective bonuses as usual or
b) Do they roll ONE armour and injury roll and apply their modifiers in a joint venture( i.e. if both have mighty blow add +1 to the armour roll and +1 to the injury roll thus abiding to the "add only one skill to an armour or injury roll" rule).

I know that both players are supposed to be treated as one player for the purpose of blocking so b) seems to be the more convenient option.

Any other ideas about that?

there is no official answer (tho it has been asked on tbb recently). However the concensus seems to be that only 1 of the 2 may knock him down, tho a commish can rule as they seem fit.
