was sent there by rötschreck?
a vampire with rulse of the canaille bleeds with night moves. the bleed is
reduced by two. i believe the bleed ends up at 1 because the original bleed
of 3 os reduced to 1. the night moves kicks only in at the end because it
says "ignore the excess". is this correct?
thanks for the help

No. Combat has ended when the vampire goes to torpor.
Rotschreck card text. "Combat ends" then later the bit about torpor.

Night Moves reduces all bleeds to one, no matter how the extra is
gained, be it permanent or transient.

I think he means:"What goest first: the reducing of the bleed by, say
Telepatic Counter, or the reducing of the bleed by Night Moves?"
I think you should just follow the general rule: cards are resolved in the
order in which they are played. So the NM (being an action and therefore
played first) resolves first, giving +3/6 stealth and reducing the bleed to
one, then the TC resolves reducing it to 0

The problem is, Night Moves' effect is not immediate upon being played.
If the bleed resolves in excess of one, then the excess is ignored, but
NM does not reduce the bleed until then. So the Pulsed vampire is
bleeding for 3 at +3/6 stealth per Night Moves, then, if Telepathically
Countered at inferior, the bleed resolves for 2, 1 of which is in
excess of 1 and ignored per NM's text. If TC is played at superior,
the NM resolves for 1 and the NM bleed-capping text is moot.
TC v. NM is analogous to Skin of Rock v. Flesh of Marble -- you can't
reduce bleed after the NM cap has taken effect, since the bleed is actually
resolving at that point. Just like you can't play Skin of Rock to prevent
the 1 point of damage FoM reduces all otherwise unprevented damage to.

Makes sense, could LSJ make a comment?
LSJ
NM never reduces the bleed. It makes it so that if the bleed resolves for
more than one, the excess is ignored - slightly different than reducing the
bleed. Ozmo with a Pulse who attempts Night Moves can still be hit
with Archon Investigation. Likewise, if the bleed is reduced by 2 (from 4
to 2), the amount in excess of 1 is still ignored when the bleed resolves.
This is slightly different, in an inconsequential way, from the Flesh of
Marble case - FoM really does (eventually) prevent damage.

If NM had reduced the bleed, would it have been different then or would it
still had taken effect at the end of the bleed like Gomi described?
LSJ
>still had taken effect at the end of the bleed like Gomi described?
That would depend on when it reduced the bleed, which would depend on how
the cards text was theorectically altered to indicate bleed reduction.
If it reduced it before the TC was played, then TC could reduce it to zero.
If not, then it couldn't.
