Thank you Spotsknight, this is how I thought the game sequence worked since I learned the finer points of the game, but for some reason the way certain responses were worded I started to think some things were resolving before PPP and during combat resolution it's self.
Dumbing it down to the specifics and describing the chain helps for me to visualize it a lot easier. I think I'm going to create some diagrams of this and other examples and send them to UDE for people like me <chuckle>. A picture is worth a thousand words, especially in cases like these.
Thank you for rescuing my sanity and letting me see I wasn't completely mistaken all this time.
Cheers
