Precognition +1 intercept (S) As above, and if combat occurs, prevent 1 damage during the first round of combat. Does this mean you *have* to prevent one damage if you are able to? Or can you abstain? Roger

[ quoted text not captured ] Hmm. The text doesn't use the "may" template, so it must be mandatory. If you take damage in the first round, you must prevent one point of it. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

>Hmm. The text doesn't use the "may" template, so it must be mandatory. >If you take damage in the first round, you must prevent one point of >it. But does this mean that you can "save" the prevention for later that round, or do you have to prevent the first damage that comes your way? If it's the former, then you have the problem that no additional damage is dealt and you can't retroactively prevent it so I'm guessing you have to prevent the first damage you take? Halcyan 2

[ quoted text not captured ] No need to guess there - that's what you quoted - if you take damage, you must prevent one point of it. -- [ quoted text not captured ]
