Poll. So, what exactly is Hit&Run?

Don't be dense, buddy: the scorpicore moves, the opponent's speed is outrun by the masquerade, the first troglodyte removes the retaliation, 200 strike, and then, on the move of the last unit, the buyback happens. Figure it out first, then write.

I thought I was too hasty: I want the ability to play this way, so I vote for the second option.
