Hi! I wonder if it possible to play 'Mask of 1,000 Faces' when you attack your opponents minion with your Muddled Vampire Hunter, or better: I know you can. The question is, can the Hunter strike his '4 damage first strike' and then just between strike and resolution I play Mask o'Faces to absorb my opponents minions hit with another of my minions. As it it an action modifier, which can be played at any time during an action and the card reads "...the action resumes where it left off". My assumption would be: YES, you can play the Mask at absolutely any time and switch your minions at any point in the action. Has anyone got an opinion about this?

My favorite trick with the Mask is to hand an Ivory Bow or Flame Thrower to one minion, than attempt a bleed with another minion on the next turn. When they block the *other* one, I whip out the Mask and let the guy with the Bow do his dirty work. A really aggravating card. -- If he were opened, and you find so much blood in his | a-Henh! liver as will clog the foot of a flea, I'll eat the | Brian Wilson rest of the anatomy. | William Shakespeare |

Mask of 1000 Faces is an action modifier, not a combat card, so can't be used during combat. Tom Wylie rec.games.deckmaster Network Representative for aahz@hal.com Wizards of the Coast, Inc.
