Hi there, I have just thought of something else that came up in our game the other night. I diabelerised one of my predators Vampires, of course there was a referendum to determine how quickly they would 'Burn' my Vampire. I was not concerned as I had the combat card 'Reform Body' in my hand which can be played if my Vampire is being burned and sends it to Torpor instead. I have had two conflicting pieces of 'advice's on this. One is that I cannot play it at that time, the other is that I can play it as it says so on the card. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, Cypher-Swan.

You were not a reacting minion. You were not in combat. Reform Body cannot, therefore, be played. -- James Coupe | PGP Key 0x5D623D5D "Definitely a woman" - www.thespark.com/ Standard disclaimers apply to this post.

No. The amaranth'ed vampire could reform (since he's being burned in combat), but the diablerist could not, since he's being burned in a blood hunt, which is neither an action (he couldn't play Dread Gaze, for instance) nor a combat. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.
