@XuEn: Do you know if this (section "Defensive"): "A pawn struck with Petrification while carrying no Secret Softeners of their own will not cure themselves if given one afterwards (they must be given the curative prior to the debilitation)."

is still true? I seem to remember giving a Secret Softener to a pawn 1 - 3 seconds after they got inflicted and they did use it...? - But i'll try it out with my pawn next time we're up against a Cockatrice.

I've noticed pawns will often finish an attack before using curatives in general. Like, they start a long combo like Thousand Kisses, get hit, but will still first finish their attack and only then use the curative. Maybe that's why it's mentioned here, maybe the pawns started a longer 'combo', got inflicted by Petrification, but didn't have the time after finishing that 'combo' to use the curative that was added to their inventory later, before their movement slowed down too much for them to do anything?
