[LSJ] Redlist

Redlist Action Requires a ready titled non-redlist vampire. D: Choose a ready ally or younger vampire. The choosen minion becomes Red List. That minion may not attempt to block this action. So, if I understand correctly, a titled sabbat vampire can play a Redlist ??? That doesn't seem realistic afaik what is the Red List (enemies of the Camarilla) Nico Prince of Oye Plage

Correct. > That doesn't seem realistic afaik what is the Red List (enemies of the Camarilla) No more or less so than letting Camarilla vampires vote on a Crusade or letting all sects and clans vote on who should be the Ventrue Justicar. It's a game balance issue. > Nico > Prince of Oye Plage -John Flournoy

It's a design consideration, yes. In VTES, the Red List is not a Camarilla tool. It is a mark that designates that someone in a position of power wants someone else eliminated. That's all. It has a great deal over overlap with the pseudo-VTES-canon material (i.e., the RPG source books :-), in that the same vampires marked for destruction in one are marked for destruction in the other and vice versa et cetera ad naseum. :-) -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

V:TM is a role playing game. They share source material, but often have differences. Sometimes, the RPG "history" or whatever has to take a back seat so that the game works better.

Like in this particular case. and since the RPG is DEAD, we can make our own story! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! we, being the collective vtes community, or more specifically, lsj. :P Hmmm.....i'd like to see mini comics come with starter decks. you know, like you used to get with the original Masters of the Universe (He-Man) action figures. they could be used to fill backstory, or just be a neat little thing to spend 5 mins reading. if you had a different one for each starter, or maybe a large number of them, and a random one in each starter, then it might help increase sales of starters. that added value Fred wanted, just not in a straight cards sort of way. that way we could still keep WoD "canon" ticking over, or whatever, or at least just be interesting. yeah, mini comics! woooo! just little B&W booklets like the rulebook. perhaps excerpts from already published WW comics (although maybe not....) or maybe just short stories. don't need art then. you could even just use fan submissions. i want story! and, perhaps some more coffee or sleep. i think i need at least one of those. salem domain:canberra http://www.geocities.com/salem_christ.geo/vtes.htm (replace "hotmail" with "yahoo" to email)
