So the Last Action will be a turn like any other:

I pick a relevant ability,

I make a bid (up to starting APs, since I have none)

The narrator and I roll on the EC table, with the resistance being the number of APs I am negative

If I get a Transfer that takes me to positive APs, then I'm back in the contest, but
if I don't get back up to positive APs then I'm out of the contest for good*; I can't attempt a last action again. (*Although another participant could act against me to drive me to an even lower level of defeat.)

Please can somebody confirm I've got this right, because I can see a situation or two I'd like to get "talked" through.

Cheers,
