Can one block while stunned?

By /Drizzt/, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Greetings everyone,

Just one short rule question as stated in the topic: Can a creature / hero block while being attacked when stunned?

The card text reads that discarding the card is the only possibe action when it's your turn. But it says nothing when it's not your turn ( which is the case when being attacked ).

You could switch out the lights of pretty every big monster easily by stunning it, then attacking it and always doing full damage.

Am I correct that blocking is still possible when stunned?

Many thanks and cheers,

Chris

No where in the rules does it indicate that rolling defense dice is an action. I do believe you continue to roll defense dice even when stunned.
