1. Does strike:dodge protect against catatonic fear`s damage if both are at close range ? 2. Is the recent official ruling for voting that no replace for pushed votes until your next turn? 3. There are three players. Me A, my prey B and my predator C. Player B is bleeding player C with Govern the Unaligned using Seduction to prevent his only untapped vampire to block. C plays Wake with evening freshness trying to block bleed. I play Direct Intervention to cancel that wake hoping bleed goes through killing my predator. Now the question: Can player C play Direct Intervention at this moment to cancel played seduction letting him block the bleed with his untapped minion? I think no, because the bleed and the seduction are already played and I played Direct Intervention to cancel wake. -- Marko --

No. Against a S:CE, the dodge doesn't get to resolve, so it doesn't protect the dodger. > 2. Is the recent official ruling for voting that no replace for pushed votes > until your next turn? No. The current rule is that votes cannot be "pushed". Each Methuselah can play no more than one Political Action card to gain a vote. The rule on replacement is: No cards played during a referendum (action modifiers like Bribes and Bewitching Oration, reaction cards like Dread Gaze and Pulling Strings, and Political Action cards burned votes, e.g.) are replaced until after the referendum. > 3.

Direct Interevntion can only be played at the time the card to be canceled is played, not later. -- LSJ (vte...@wizards.com) V:TES Net.Rep for Wizards of the Coast.
