outside the hourglass

when a minion A play during a action , Domain of Evernight temporis base . in the combat minion A play outside the h. temporis master during pre-rage step the minion B in pre-rage play horrid form master , i can prevent the damage of the houtside the hourglass ? thanks ilbuglio

yes, providing you played 2 horrid form, you can prevent what's incoming. Both happen pre range ! Imagination is our only weapon in the war against reality -Jules de Gaultier

Correct answer from Reyda.

How does the timing work? A is the acting minion (he played Domain of Evernight) so he gets to play Outside the Hourglass before B can play Horrid Form. Can Horrid Form be played in the prevent step of the damage from Outsde the Hourglass?

groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/browse_thread/thread/db243bec617223ea/9cede65aa32eb639 states that "Once 'Outside the Hourglass' damage is applied, you are allowed to play 'only usable before range' cards during the damage prevention step...for the purpose of cycling and/or fishing for prevention cards' so I don't see why you couldn't play {Only usable before range is chosen-type card which bestows damage prevention effects} and then use those effects.

That would mean that A can also play more pre range cards in the prevent phase of pre range pseudo step. Correct?

Whenever there is damage dealt, a window opens to play cards that prevent damage. But only damage prevention cards, and only when there is damage that isn't yet prevented. You can sort of "respond" with prevention cards when there is damage dealt. For the topic question, superior horrid form prevents damage, therefore it is playable in the damage prevention window. Since this all happens during pre-range, it doesn't conflict with horrid forms restriction of being playable only during pre-range step. Smoking craters tell no tales. —Tex talks Battletech

As per ruling linked by Kevin it is also possible to play non prevent cards. The question is whether the vampire inflicting damage can play those as well.

Every player can (at least in theory) play any relevant card or use any relevant effect in every phase, per the sequencing rules. Of course, in the vast majority of circumstances, that doesn't happen because no-one has anything they want to do that can be played right then.
