You can. [RTR 20041202]

Because this damage prevention window is occurring during the pre-range step. You may play pre-range cards in response. Even things like cycling Carrion Crows to look for prevent, etc.

I'm pretty sure about this but just to make sure and have this all in one thread: If acting vamp A plays Outside the Hourglass at superior at pre-range and blocking Vamp B plays Alpha Glint at superior to end combat, Vamp B still has to prevent the damage or burn blood to heal it, correct? It's non-aggravated damage in this scenario. The way I understand it is that Vamp B can play whatever pre-range cards they want (that are normally playable then), but can't pass impulse back to Vamp A until they prevent or burn blood to heal the damage. So in this scenario, Vamp B would take the 2 damage and then combat would end. If Alpha Glint were played by Vamp A, then combat would end before Vamp B could play any cards (other than cards that are playable when combat is about to end, like Taste, Psyche, etc.), right? Thanks.

This is covered rather extensively in this thread. You cannot end combat without the damage resolving, but the damage prevention window opens up the opportunity to play many effects.

And if S:CE happens first then OtH cannot be played.
