Okay, I just have a few questions: 1: This is more of a verification than a question. Body arsenal and Kraken's Kiss...do-able? I say no due to the definition of "hand strike", however, since KK says "*strength* +1" (empahsis mine) I could almost believe it is a hand strike. 2: Form of Mist (SUP): Does the blocking vampire get to untap? Can it use a reaction card to continue blocking? 3: Blood Hunt vote after a diablerie: The rules say that reaction and action modifiers cannot be played during the blood hunt since it is not an "action", however, it makes no mention of playing political action cards to add votes during the referendum. Can this be done? Thanks, TAD -- "How can you call me evil? Have you spoken to God today? What did he say?"

Your first thought was correct; this is why "strength" and "hand damage" were distinguished the way they were in all the errata/reprints, so that it would be easy to determine which was a type of strike, and which simply referred to the amount. =) >2: Form of Mist (SUP): Does the blocking vampire get to untap? Can it >use a reaction card to continue blocking? no text on Form of Mist to permit untapping, so no untap. You can Wake and continue attempting to block, but you must generate an additional +1 intercept (per text on Form of Mist). If you were already Woken, you just need the intercept, as Wake lasts for the duration of the current action, and the action hasn't concluded yet. >3: Blood Hunt vote after a diablerie: The rules say that reaction and >action modifiers cannot be played during the blood hunt since it is not >an "action", however, it makes no mention of playing political action >cards to add votes during the referendum. Can this be done? You can drop a single PA for a single vote during the referendum, yes. -- Derek Jack-Booted Thug of Atlanta "Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge." - C.

The combo is only effective in as far as Body Arsenal boosts your strength. The KK strike is not a hand strike, so can't be made aggravated by Body Arsenal. > 2: Form of Mist (SUP): Does the blocking vampire get to untap? Can it > use a reaction card to continue blocking? No. Yes, if it can untap or behave as if it were untapped. \> 3: Blood Hunt vote after a diablerie: The rules say that reaction and > action modifiers cannot be played during the blood hunt since it is not > an "action", however, it makes no mention of playing political action > cards to add votes during the referendum. Can this be done? Yes, one per Methuselah. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.
