Not quite - the Stone that would have to go back would have to be the
"young" Stone - the one that has only lived since the Reckoning, since it
was that Stone that went back the "first" time.
Leaving "old" Stone hanging around the Wasted West.

In fact, I would guess that everytime one of the Stone's died, the other
one would pull out some major mojo to bring him back, just to keep the plan
on track.

Though the older Stone would have the advantage - having lived through what
younger Stone is experiencing now.

I react and drop the first five cyborgs through the door.

Dodge TSAR bullets, drop syker squad at top of block.

Drop cyborg squad, two bullets for the heavy cans. <blamblamblamblamblamblam>
Go for manhole cover. . . <BOOM!> lose legs.  That was indeed rather stupid

Syker sets me on fire. . . 
Cyborg squad moves in, drop three of 'em.  <blamblamblamblamblamblam click>
<Old Stone pulls out a box with buttons on it>
Bullets shred chest, rip jaw off. . . Cyborg stands over me. . . <Old Stone

Okay Pinks, now we play this MY way.
