Re: Rules question Warrior.
Asking Steve Jackson Games employees to back up their calls with specific rules entries comes across as much more hostile than I think you're probably meaning to.
In Section II subsection A:
"Players must be given a fair opportunity to respond to any action taken by their opponent. Playing quickly with the intent of reducing an opponent's opportunity to respond is a clear violation of the intended spirit of the game."
More specifically, actions are: Playing or activating an ability, or advancing to a new step or phase.
So moving from the monster ability to 'weapons deal damage' is advancing to a new step, and the defending player has an opportunity to play a mischief card if they choose. Even if nothing happens during a step, the step still happens and can be responded to.
