In a multi-Methuselah game can a Sudden Reversal be used to reverse a Sudden Reversal, thus allowing the initial master card to work? An example: Methuselah #1(M1) plays a Brainwash on a uncontrolled vampire of Methuselah #2 (M2). M2 counters by throwing a Sudden Reversal. Can Methuselah #3 now also play a Sudden Reversal canceling M2's Sudden Reversal thus allowing M1's Brainwash to be played? Thanks in advance, Doug

Yes, a cancelled Sudden Reversal will hal no effect, and therefore not cancel the initial Master card played. [ quoted text not captured ]

[ quoted text not captured ] Yes to both questions. If I remember the card correctly, M3 will end up paying 2 pool for the privilege; no other Methuselah will pay pool. papillo the nondescript

Yeah, that would work ONLY as long as 3rd Meth. played the 2nd Sudden Reversal. mikec Nutbarr (nut...@aol.com) wrote: : In a multi-Methuselah game can a Sudden Reversal be used to reverse a [ quoted text not captured ]

I would assume however that you can't stack Sudden Reversals' up for more than one turn ahead though. [ quoted text not captured ]

The Brainwash would be successfully played, yes, unless M4 used another Sudden Reversal (whee!) to "counter" the Brainwash after all. That third reversal could itself be reversed, and so on ad nauseum, remembering that each player will only be able to play one out-of-turn card between their turns...

Not officially. Last word is that an Out-of-Turn master can only be played when it is *not* your turn. My group plays it like you do, though: you can play an Out-of-Turn master any time it isn't your master phase (assuming you haven't already played an out-of-turn card that causes you to lose your next master phase). papillo the debilitating
