I'm sure these have been asked before, but I'm not terribly smart and need to be reminded of such trivial things. 1. I control 2 vampires and one is a prince. This prince attempts calls a vote that requires a prince to call. This action is blocked and my other vamp, who is not a prince, plays mask of 1,000 faces....what happens? Thanks in advance and I'm sure this has been answered before, bu thanks for bearing with me. Little Tommy, Prince of Rivervale =)

He cannot play Mask of a Thousand Faces, since he is not capable of taking the action. -- LSJ (vte...@wizards.com) V:TES Net.Rep for Wizards of the Coast.

So you can't "Just kidding, it was actually... Thetmes!" when someone intercepts Rake, since Thetmes is a prince and couldn't have been doing it originally. -- Derek Deafness never kept composers from hearing the music.

(Clear from the context that you meant that, but just to clear things up for certain.) -- James Coupe

Whole rest of the sentence makes sense and then I go and typo it like that. :/ [ quoted text not captured ]

Where is the rule that states this. I, miss guidedly have been playing the other way. The logic is that the non-price is disguised as a prince and therefore can do what a price does. I know I am wrong, I just want to know why. Derek Ray <lor...@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:613A061F60403172.54080C10...@lp.airnews.net... [ quoted text not captured ]
