Scorpion sting Q

First question: Vamp A and vamp B enter combat: Vamp A plays scorpion sting at sup. May vamp B play a strike:dodge card (just to cycle) even if the strike has no effect? Second question: Acting vamp A and blocking vamp B enter combat: Vamp A plays strike:dodge Vamp B plays scorpion sting at sup. What happens? Vamp A's dodge has no effect and he loses his strike for the current round? Thank you.

He strikes (he doesn't lose his strike), and his strike is ineffectual. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Does the stinged minion still get that additional if the strike:dodge fizzles? T
