Hello, My acting vampire plays Shroud of Absence superior, gets blocked. My vampire ends combat with the option provided by Shroud of Absence. The opposing vampire plays superior Psyche!. Can my acting vampire end combat as a strike using Shroud of Absence's cardtext in the first round of the combat resulting of Psyche! ? Thanks. ~~ Shroud of Absence Cardtype: Action Modifier Discipline: Dominate & Obtenebration [dom][obt] +1 stealth. [DOM][OBT] As [dom][obt] above, and if this action is blocked, this vampire may end combat as a strike during the first round of combat. Psyche! Cardtype: Combat Discipline: Celerity [cel] Press. [CEL] Only usable at the end of combat when both combatants are still ready. Begin another combat with the opposing minion.

[ quoted text not captured ] I would say: no, simple because there is a new combat in which the Shroud of Absence isn't even played.

My guess is that the designer intent means to provide the "end combat" only during the resulting combat. Kinda same case as for Eyes of the Night (online text reflects this). It's just flat impossible for most people to wonder about it, because you need to rob banks or ransom people, else you're not rich enough to get hold of those Shrouds of Absence. Stone

Correct. Giving the minion the ability to strike: combat ends in the first round of every subsequent combat after getting blocked would be a bit overpowered, even for Dom-Obt.
