A player of mine had a question for me and I couldn't come up with a solid answer, so I'm hoping someone here can answer it.

Can Spell Defense or Shielding be used to block an attempt to Dispel a sustained spell?

The description states that to shield against Sorcery, you use the Force of the spell as the TN, but Dispelling has no real force, per se.

I think my player might be getting concerned that I'll just keep attacking his sustained spells from the astral...

Opinions?
