LSJ-combat question

[Teran Taggart]

This is a pretty stupid question but I need an answer..

My vampire plays majesty to end combat. Does the opposing player have the
ability to play a strike card even if combat ends. I understand that combat
never actually gets to the damage phase but does the opposing player's vamp
get the opportunity to play a card?

Yes, each minion has the opportunity to select a strike, usually
people use this to cycle cards, if they have an excess of strikes in
their hands...
The Complete Rules Reference has a great summary of the order of
combat that clears up how these things happen... It was posted to the
newsgroup on 2/4/98.

Yes.

Both players' strikes are announced (and cards played) before either
strike (including any strike: combat ends strikes) start to resolve.
