LSJ - various strike effects
Reyda
two situations that can occur in combat:
1
Acting vamp (with tha&cel) plays no strike -hands for one
defending vamp (with OBF) pulls a nice pair of Bang Nakh off his pocket and
strikes for 3
Acting vamp plays additional strike, and plays a tha strike that says "if
opponent tries to use a weapon, he does no damage".
How is this handled ? is the damage from the previous strike resolution
"cancelled" ? i guess not but...
2
Acting vamp (with chi&pro) plays Shadow of the wolf. No manoeuver.
Defending (CEL & OBF) goes ranged using a hidden gun (same as above, with
maneuver). 2 R damage.
Acting says no strike. He takes 2 damage
defending says : Blur !!
Acting says i use the additional from shadow of wolf to play Far Faatus and
prevent the incoming 4 damage.
Is this legal ? (is the strike from shadow of wolf not necessary a hand
strike ?)
I guess damage from the first shot cannot be prevented that way...

thank you ?

Your guess is correct.
It will not retroactively undo the damage already resolved.

Assuming the opponent strikes with the gun for the two remaining
strikes, correct.

Shadow of the Wolf gives an additional strike - it is not a strike
in and of itself. The additional strike may be a hand strike or any
other strike.
> I guess damage from the first shot cannot be prevented that way...
Correct, as the first question - damage already resolved is not
retroactively affected.
