I control an ally. I play Red List on him. I have played a trophy as a master phase action this turn, uncontrolled for the moment. If I play Kiss of Lachesis (inf) on him, what happens ? If I play Jar the Soul (sup) on him, what happens ? If I recrut a War ghoul and burn him as a cost, what happens ?

The action is undirected (as all recruits are), so doesn't qualify for the Red List rules. If a vampire burns a Red List minion in combat or as a (D) action (including diablerie) -- James Coupe PGP Key: 0x5D623D5D YOU ARE IN ERROR.

Lets see: Red List: Any Methuselah may use a master phase action to mark a Red List minion for the current turn. Any ready vampire she controls may enter combat with a marked Red List minion as a +1 stealth (D) action that costs 1 blood. Each vampire can take this action only once each turn. If a vampire burns a Red List minion in combat or as a (D) action (including diablerie), his controller may go through her library, ash heap and/or hand to get a master trophy card to put on that vampire and then reshuffle her library or draw back up to her hand size as necessary. Other trophies may be moved to this vampire, as well (see section 1.6.2). This is done before the blood hunt referendum is called, if any.

The ally taps, thats all, because allies ignore all burn blood effects. > > If I recrut a War ghoul and burn him as a cost, what happens ? Thats not a D Action targeting the Red List Minion, so nothing special happens. The ally is burned, thats it.

my apologies, I didn't notice you were answering to mr Coupe. damned goggle browser. :D

Naga

excuse me dear Guru, but what exactly is correct ? James Coupe's assumption or Erol's ? what interests me the most is to understand if I can get a trophy in burning a red list ally I own with a (D) action, that would be by fact undirected as I would play it in my ready region. Thanks in advance

[ quoted text not captured ] I am not LSJ, but... Mr. Coupe is correct. Remember that anything that is not directed at something controlled by another methuselah is by default undirected. A (D) action directed at something you control becomes undirected. You can't peform a (D) action to burn something you control (the action would become undirected) and your minions can't get into combat with any other minion you control. Thus nothing you do to something you control will satisfy the requirements for getting a trophy. Doug

No, because Kiss of Lachesis is not a D action if you target your own ally. If someone else controls the Red List ally, and you play Kiss of L. on that ally, would you get the trophies then? Also, the minion wouldn't get ALL available Trophy cards. It's up to each methuselah to decide whether to give him their trophies or not. That much I know. Cheers.
