Kingdom Come seems to assume that you never spend a Cinematic Point when opposing another character in a test, as far as I can tell. You can spend a point to turn a test into a Comparable, but you cannot spend a point to undo something someone else has done. I would like to spend Cinematic Points in combat against another person, but it seems to me that this cannot be, because there is no way to get into a bidding war (because you would have to undo what the other person did, and turn a Comparable back into a Challenge), and there is no real way to decide who spent their point 'first' other than silly yelling matches whenever a round starts. And it seems to me that this is sad.
Dear Storyteller, are there any cases in which one might use a Cinematic Point in combat to turn a test to a Comparable? The possible case your ninja and I worked out was against an Angel, as it lets us cinematically whack them for one round, their Transcendent Advantage be damned.
