Nightstick and Forearm Block provide strikes that prevents damage. They don't work against strike with first strike, since they are declared at the same time but resolve after the strike with First strike.
(Similary, when playing a Theft of Vitae against a First strike, you'll steal the blood once the First strike have resolved.)

The only case where I have a doubt would be with strike card that prevent damage. I don't know if you can prevent the damage from a first strike strike with a strike that prevent. But I don't know any strike that prevent damage (Bundi, maybe ?)

Since "combat ends" moves you to the end of the round, you can also play a Disarm right after resolving Anesthetic Touch.

Even if the combat ends after the strike, you still have to resolve the strike (including any burn blood due to damage or prevention of that damage.)Steinar wrote: I just wondered because the combat ends immediately after the strike
