Since BBB contains no example I just want to make sure I have this right. I looked around on the boards, but couldn't find the answer.

Shaman Dude (me)
Spellcasting Dice 6
Willpower 5

Goon (Target)
Willpower 3
Body 3

I cast a Manabolt at Force 3. Are the steps? (p181):

1) Preparation - None.
2) Spell Targeting - No modifiers this time.
3) I roll my Spellcasting Dice against TN 3. I make say 3 successes.
4) Goon tries to resist the Bolt and rolls his 3 Willpower dice against the Force of the spell 3. Lets say he makes 2 successes. Since he has less successes than me he takes the effect.
5) Spell Effect. Bolt hits with M + success so its up to S. Goon needs to roll Body versus the Force or take S. He rolls 3 dice with a target number of the Force 3. With 3 sucesses he stages down once and takes M damage.
6) Drain. Shaman rolls Willpower against the Force 3 divided by 2 rounded up (so 2). He rolls his 5 Willpower Dice against a 2 and gets 4 successes and takes L damage.

Is this right? Shaman takes L for dealing M.
