[ quoted text not captured ] Appolonius can hold a lot of blood. That's pretty good. oscar

Appolonius Clan: Brujah Group: 1 Capacity: 10 Discipline: for pot CEL PRE Camarilla primogen: Appolonius gets one optional press each combat. +1 bleed. One vote, two superior disciplines, a press and +1 bleed.. He does have fortitude, but big deal. Klaus Konrecht Clan: Toreador antitribu Group: 4 Capacity: 8 Discipline: for pot AUS CEL PRE Sabbat cardinal. 3 votes, 8 cap, 1 more superior discipline, but no press! I guess no well-aimed cars for him! Brandon

IN-CLAN SUPERIORS Appolonius has [CEL PRE], allowing such power combos as Aire of Elation + Alacrity and Majesty + Psyche. Jack Drake has [CEL POT] which lets him do what? Flurry bleed and Rampage on the same turn? WINNER: APPOLONIUS OUT-OF-CLAN DISCIPLINE Jack has [tha], giving him access to Machine Blitz. Plus, he can use Biothaumaturgic experiment to get an Elephant Guardian. Appolonius only has [for]. 'Nuff said. WINNER: JACK DRAKE CAPACITY 10>8. WINNER: APPOLONIUS GROUPING Jack cannot be in a crypt with Frederick the Weak. Appolonius can. WINNER: APPOLONIUS PERMANENT BONUSES Appolonius has +1 bleed, Jack has +1 strength. +1=+1. TIE SPECIAL TRAITS While Primogena (is that the correct plural of Primogen?) may play Of Noble Blood and Will of the Council, Anarchs get access to a larger number of cards of similar importance. Still, Primogen is a title, and Primogena have benefits versus Maldavis. WINNER: APPOLONIUS OTHER SPECIALS All Jack can do is let all your younger vampires come out Anarch. Appolonius has a press. Everybody knows all interesting combat happens *after* the first round. Where is Jack Drake going to get a press when he needs one? WINNER: APPOLONIUS

[ quoted text not captured ] I think it's like moose, same singular as plural. "That primogen" "The primogen" "Those primogen" Could be wrong, but that's what I thought it was in the RPG Brandon

A definite TIE. -- -bur ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com **
