Hi, I have on question for the group. What will happens to the next situation: Acting vampire A is blocking by vampire B. In the strike declaration, minion A play a Majesty, and minion B play a wolf claws. As the minion B is blockin and is trying to inflict agravated damage, I suppose he can play a Rotschreck to send minion A to torpor. How is resolved the above combat? Another question is: When takes effect the strike: combat ends? In the strike resolution or as the card (Majesty for example) is played? Thanks

The Methuselah controlling minion B plays Rotschreck. Combat ends. Minion A goes to torpor, as per Rotschreck text. > Another question is: When takes effect the strike: combat ends?

Meaning that minion B declares "hands" as his strike and also (before moving to the strike resolution step) plays Wolf Claws. > As the minion B is blockin > and is trying to inflict agravated damage, I suppose he can play a > Rotschreck to send minion A to torpor. Yes. (Actually, minions don't play Master cards - so technically, minion B's controller would play Rotschreck) Note: "Blocking" isn't required - the only thing that is important is that it isn't minion B's controller's turn. > How is resolved the above combat? Minion B's controlled plays Rotschreck (before strike resolution). Combat immediately ends. Vampire A goes to torpor. > Another question is: When takes effect the strike: combat ends? In the > strike resolution or as the card (Majesty for example) is played? When Strike Resolution begins.
