One of my minions is in combat. Someone plays Save Face, giving my minion a mandatory press. Can my minion play a press to cancel that press, or would that violate the "can't cancel your own presses" rule? I have two minions. One is blocked and plays Change of Target. Can the other play Hidden Lurker, or does cancelling the action prevent its use?

Not having combat between the acting minion and a blocking minion prevents its use. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

From the wording of Save Face, which states that "the chosen vampire gets a mandatory press", I get the impression that the designer was well aware of who was getting the press (as opposed to wording the mandatory press to be like the environmental Trap press). >I have two minions.

Change of Target cancels the combat so you cannot play the Hidden Lurker. Halcyan 2
