DS can still react to the backstab.

What? I already backstabbed DS and now skull is winning. It's DS's move.
my bad thought you were the one fighting the monster

Yeah, so if I can actually prevent the backstab from occurring with a card, I curse Charles to force him move to the chamber of commerce

Hmmm, would that prevent the backstab? It seems like it would move me now after the backstab already happened.

That was very specifically why I asked if I could do it to affect your action.

Non-Helpers in Combat
What if you’re not the Helper but you still want to interfere
in a combat? What if you want the monster to win? You can’t
directly attack other players, but you can affect combats in several ways:
*Use any one-shot card that can affect combat. Curses have
great potential here. Take away an Item that your rival needs, for
instance.

I am ruling that DS is playing a curse as a non-helper. Therefore he can play the curse to effect the backstab. Curses were designed to directly effect combat.

Also, I am assuming that due to the limitations of playing in a forum setting, DS did not have ample opportunity to respond to Charles announcing his backstab.

as about 2.6 seconds, for anyone else to speak up
I am assuming that DS would have played winds of fate before you rolled.

Wait, you mean that 2.6 seconds in a forum setting is unrealistic? lol

I'd rule that DS' card and play is allowed. The backstap happened, then DS countered by moving the player backstabbing away far enough to cancel it's effect

That's what I ruled.

Does anyone else have a card to interfere with DS? I got nothing other than the backstab.

Ah. I use my warrior ability for a +5 (cannot fail), and then I use my freezing explosive potion on myself for a net +0 swing compared to that card.

If no one else has anything to play DS wins.

I've got nothing.

I'm starting to wonder if this game reaches a point no one can beat the final boss

It just continues until people run out of DxM cards. It's one of my biggest issues with Munchkin in general.

Anyways, if someone has some movement out of combat, would they be interested in helping? I'm out of tricks here.

Unlike regular munchkin, 2 people can very easily win without one being an elf. Anyone in the winning combat versus the boss monster will win here.

I would have offered to help, but the Winds of Fate blew me too far away now.
