Just needing a clarification in this: Acting Minion A get blocked by Minion B. Minion A uses Anesthetic Touch at superior, minion B uses his gun. Can Minion B use the Gun with Dragon's Breath Rounds, and maybe play Rötschreck thereafter? I think not, because Dragon's Breath Rounds is played "as damage is being resolved", which would be after the combat ended because of Anesthetic Touch's combat ends after first strike. Right?

2 needed Clarifications: 1st: Minion A is blocked by minion B. Minion a uses Anesthetic Touch at superior, Minion B uses his gun. Can Minion B play Dragon's Breath Rounds and Rötschreck thereafter? I think not, because Combat is ended before Damage from Gun is being resolved, thus the controller of Minion B has no time to play Dragon's Breath rounds, and thus cannot use Rötschreck, as his Minion does no agg. damage. 2nd: Minion A is using Combat ends. Same as before, there is no time to play Dragon's Breath rounds. Correct?

Yes. >I think not, because Dragon's Breath Rounds is played "as damage is >being resolved", Current card text: "Only usable before resolution of a gun's strike." >which would be after the combat ended because of >Anesthetic Touch's combat ends after first strike. which isn't. # Ammo (Dragon's Breath Rounds, Glaser Rounds, Manstopper Rounds) are played "before resolution of a gun's strike", not "when damage from a gun is being resolved". That is, it is played after the strike is announced, but before the strike resolution phase. [RTR 19990105] >Right?

[ quoted text not captured ] No. Ammo is played before moving to strike resolution. It is played before S:CE or First Strikes resolve. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

[ quoted text not captured ] The thing is that both combatants _play/choose_ their strikes at the same time, although the AT strike is resolved first. DBR must be played before Strike Resolution. This means that, before the strike resolution of AT, Minion B can play DBR and Rotschreck. .- Luis Duarte - - - Powerbase:Lisbon-[http://planeta.clix.pt/vampire]

If anestetic was at inferior (non-first-strike), I see no problem, but who am I...(those strikes are resolved at some point, or rotschreck) [ quoted text not captured ]

So at that moment minion B is attempting to strike with agg damage and so he can play the Rötschreck. Minion A goes into torpor with the rötschreck. "To rule throught blood is to rule in strenght"

Yes cause you're still at declaring your strike they haven't resolved yet. and the Rötschreck is before the strike are resolved even before first strike is resolved. > I think not, because Combat is ended before Damage from Gun is being > resolved, thus the controller of Minion B has no time to play Dragon's > Breath rounds, and thus cannot use Rötschreck, as his Minion does no > agg. damage. > > 2nd: Minion A is using Combat ends.

Your damage may or may not happen depending on the order of damage resolution. For instance, Anesthetic Touch can be dodged or SCEd just fine. Fred

<That is, it is played after the strike is announced, but before the strike resolution phase.> Ok.
