Hey there, Compel the Spirit, Daemonic Possession and Resurrection specifically apply to cards that have been burned "since your last turn." If the card you wish to affect burns on your own turn, can you Compel/etc it on the same turn, on your next turn, both or neither? - Eric -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG

Your next turn won't qualify. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc. Links to V:TES news, rules, cards, utilities, and tournament calendar: http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes/

Something like "only usable if X has been burned during the current turn" ? It would be clearer, i think. Emiliano, v:ekn Prince of Rome > --

[ quoted text not captured ] It would be clearer for that case, but would clearly reduce the functionality of the card. cf. cards burned since your last turn but before your current turn. Big Picture. [ quoted text not captured ]

[ quoted text not captured ] That wouldn't be the same; 'since your last turn' includes the time from when you ended your previous turn until the time you finish your current turn (or next turn, if you are inbetween turns). This would be important for cards which might get played outside of your normal turn (e.g. under the auspices of Malkavian Madness Network, for example). It would require quite lengthy wording to replace 'since' I think, and since is pretty clear really (the period from but not including the time referrenced up to the current moment). - Rafe

Mmh, how about "only usable if X has been burned *after the end* of your last turn" ? Emiliano <snip>
