My brother and I were talking about funny feat combos for larger combos, and then I suddenly came upon an admittedly rare, but possible way to break the game, or to cause a "paradox". Basically, it involves using Fiona the black, and Deliese, against... Fiona the black, and Deliese! So, picture this, fiona1 and deliese1 both feat, and then, in there turn, fiona2 and deliese2 pop feat, and then deliese charges in assuming that she has no focus. Deliese2 attacks deliese1, and with no focus, she can't boost, so she cannot physically touch deliese1, her missing will trigger deliese1's riposte ability, and, as she is also only keeping one die, so she cannot hit Deliese2, so deliese2 can use her riposte, and so it goes on, for eternity, the greatest sword fights since the original starwars XD ! Im sure im not this first to come up with something, but i would love to put the game in stalemate like this.

It's easy to stop. Just have one Ashlynn use her gunfighter ability. Then she's making a ranged attack so if she misses no riposte.

You can't riposte with Gunfighter because (as you said) it's a
ranged attack and Riposte allows you to make a melee attack.

you could also stop it by just choosing not to riposte, and then using your turn to bring in a jack to finish her off. Like its not perfect, but it is kinda neat. or not, who knows/

Mk1 had something similar when something with Riposte triggered
against Retaliatory Strike.

Actually I was referring to the initial attack and not the riposte.

That's a idiot fight, not a paradox.
