No. By playing an Out-of-Turn master, you are using your next turn's master phase early, which is why you don't get to play a master in that next turn. But, since you have used it up, you can't play another Out-of-Turn until after your next turn. James -- * James Hamblin * * Cornell University * * je...@cornell.edu *

But, since you have used it up, you can't play another And to answer a question in advance, no, the Parthenon doesn't help either, as it can only be tapped for an additional master phase action during your master phase.

But, since you have used it up, you can't play another I suppose the next obvious question would be: What about Anson? Wouldn't you be able to play two Out-Of-Turn Masters if Anson's your man?

V:tES rulebook, page 10: Out-of-Turn: Out-of-turn cards can only be played when it is not your turn. If you play this type of card, you lose your master phase action during the master phase of your next turn. Once you've played an out-of-turn master card, you can't play another one until after your next turn. That's the literal rules. It seems to me that Anson/Rumors would let you play another OOT before your next turn, but I may be wrong. Shawn? [ quoted text not captured ]

Playing a master Out of Turn is like anticipate your next master phase. If you have Anson or whatever card that allows you to play more than one master in a turn so you can play as many Out of Turn as the number of master you can play. You can also mix Out of Turn and Master : playing one Sudden and, your next turn, one master. -- Michel BRIAND Toulouse, FRANCE media...@calva.net

Anson/Rumors provides an extra action during the master phase, so you would get *one* during the master phase. Important note: remember that, according to the rules, you can only play one OOT until after your next turn. -- --Shawn F.

Mr. Wylie was giving the (then current) Jyhad ruling. With VtES, WotC introduced the "master phase action" and changed the rule on MOoT cards so that playing a MOoT would only burn your next MastertPhaseAction (MPA), not the entire phase. Mr. Wylie pointed out the change when it occurred. >: Important note: remember that, according to the rules, you can only play >: one OOT until after your next turn. >And that's why. NOt that I object to the ruling changing, but these two >elements are directly contradictory. The new rules also explicitly deny the possibility of playing more than one MOoT between your turns (as an obstacle to using the new MPA rules to implement some degenerate MOoT combo).

I checked with Tom, and after some discussion: IT'S A REVERSAL! The official ruling is now that you get the Anson master action if you use Sudden Reversal before your master phase. To me it doesn't make any sense that you lose the master phase because you play one master card. One master card equals the expenditure of one master action. -- >>> Shawn F.
