(LSJ) Pocket Out of Time

Can an acting vampire play Pocket Out of Time at superior Temporis right after a combat has ended and burn 1 blood immediately to start a new combat?

[ quoted text not captured ] I would say no. The action has resolved (the resulting combat has ended). End of action - no more action modifiers, unless they specify that they can be used after combat or at the end of an action, like Freak Drive. But always remember my inicials are TNGB, not LSJ.

[ quoted text not captured ] Yes, I'd say that its text indicates post-resolution ability.

[ quoted text not captured ] But can it be played (not activated, but played) in the post-combat- yet-before-the-action-is-over window, and then restart the combat that has just completed (even though Pocket wasn't affecting play when that combat happened)?

[ quoted text not captured ] After any combat this action, this vampire can burn 1 blood to start a new combat with the opposing minion (if both combatants are still ready).

[ quoted text not captured ] I have a follow-up question about the word "any" on this card. Does it read the same as "After each combat this action, this vampire can burn 1 blood ..." or "After any one combat this action, this vampire can burn 1 blood ..."? Thanks, ~Rehlow

[ quoted text not captured ] See??? I was right. My initials are not LSJ.

Antara, etc.) Sorry for reviving this, but just need to be sure that this also goes for any combats resulting from burning the blood for Pocket out of time. I assume it must be, since those combats are still part of the action. Maybe better explained with an example. Shalmath has an assault riffle, he plays bums rush and rushes vampire A, Shalmath plays no cards, vampire A plays majesty and ends combat, Shalmath burns a blood and starts a new combat, no cards are played and shalmath shoots once, combat ends, Shalmath burns a blood and starts a new combat, no cards are played and shalmath shoots once, combat ends, Shalmath burns a blood and starts a new combat, no cards are played and shalmath shoots once, rinse, repeat

Well, I guess it requires a Pocket Out of Time to be played at some point during the action, otherwise it'd be cheating, right :-P ?
