When Promising Future allows moving a character to an empty battlefield, does the player score a conquest point immediately, or must they wait for Promising Future to fully resolve first?

Ruling: You must wait for everything to resolve before you can start a showdown and potentially score the conquest point. Moving to an empty battlefield applies contested status, but scoring only happens after a showdown completes, which can only begin when the chain is empty.

Sequence:

• Both players search and choose/banish cards from Promising Future
• Active player plays their card first (puts it on the chain)
• Non-active player plays their card
• All effects resolve
• Once the chain is empty, if contested status was applied, a showdown begins
• After the showdown completes, if you're still on the battlefield alone, you score the conquest point

Nuances:

• If the opponent moves a unit to the same battlefield with their Promising Future card or a reaction, combat will be pending instead of an open showdown
• If a reaction is played in response that moves a unit to the same battlefield, it resolves first, and the opponent becomes the attacker
• The player whose turn it is chooses their Promising Future card first but plays it last
