No...

Blount's ability just means that the defender is count as hit no matter what the dice say, this DOES NOT mean that you get to change the dice using this ability.

You still have to roll your attack dice, just as the defender still has to roll his defense dice, so there is a possibility that he does not take any damage, but he would still count as being hit.

This is useful in cases involving Assault missiles, or Ion Pulse missiles where the effect goes of even when the target you shot at did not take any damage!

It can also be used to remove the Stealth Device modification that a ship would lose the modification if you shot a it with Blount even if the attack did not deal any damage.
