Form of Mist Payment Timing Question

Then question of when you pay for Form of Mist (Superior) was addressed a while back: >> If I play Form of Mist at supperior when do I have to decide if I'm >> going to pay my blood and continue? >> Do I have to pay (or not) as I play the strike? As the strike >> resolves? >> Can I decide after combat? After combat and after my opponent >> doesn't play Psyche or Cats Guidance? >After combat. >After Psyche! window. >Before Cats' Guidance window. >-- >LSJ (vtes...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc. >V:TES homepage: http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes/ This has come up in a game recently, and raised an additional question. Is the post-combat phase the only time you can burn the blood - with the intent to continue? Or can the Acting Vampire chooose to pay at any time after playing the card? My oponent plays Form of Mist, and pushes the blood off the Vampire. I have a Psyche! in hand. When I play it do we have to "rewind" back to combat ending (and the Vampire gets the blood back). Or is the blood spent? -Ben Swainbank

Just in the after combat slot -- at the time of the would-be untapping. > My oponent plays Form of Mist, and pushes the blood off the Vampire. I > have a Psyche! in hand.

I assume you mean 'at the time of the would-be action continuation'? :) -- salem (replace 'hotmail' with 'yahoo' to email)
