[LSJ] some rules clarification

My playgroup wants some clarification for these card texts: 1. When do I have to tap an Island of Yiaros, if I announce the strike or before strike resolution? Island of Yiaros Type: Master Requires: Ventrue Cost: 2 pool Master: unique location. You may tap this card to give a vampire you control +X strength for one strike, where X is the number of votes the vampire has, not counting any votes he or she gets in the prisci sub-referendum (e.g., a prince gets +2 strength). 2. What happens if Petaniqua ADV recruits a Cry Wolf and is blocked, does she goes to torpor? Petaniqua Advanced Clan: Baali (group 4) Capacity: 9 Disciplines: AUS DAI DEM OBF THA chi Advanced, Independent. Red List: Once each combat, Petaniqua may burn a blood to gain a press. Petaniqua may recruit a werewolf ally as if she meets the requirements of playing that card. +1 strength. Infernal. Cry Wolf Type: Ally Requires: anarch Unique werewolf with 3 life. 2 strength, 0 bleed. Requires a ready anarch. If the action to recruit this ally is blocked, the acting anarch goes to torpor. This werewolf must enter combat with any minion controlled by another Methuselah as a (D) action. He gets one optional press each combat. This werewolf does not untap as normal during your untap phase. If he is tapped during your untap phase, burn him.

Whenever you want (before strike resolution). Your strike deals strength damage , + any modifiers from strike or other cards, one of which would be IoY. [ quoted text not captured ] Petaniqua counts as anarch for the resolution of all effects of Cry Wolf, so a succesful block sends her to torpor. Compare with allies playing cards as Vampires and Mata Hari/Tatiana.
