[LSJ] Bizzare hunt question...

A vampire rescued from torpor has 0 blood on him. Normally this minion would have to immediately hunt. However, if his controller taps the coven and places two blood on that minion, does she have to hunt anymore? Or was the fact that she was at 0 blood (and untapped & capable of hunting) sometime during her minion phase mean that she must now hunt even though she has blood? I've been scouring the newsgroup to find the answer, but can't find anything that relevant. Thanks, Alexander Michels

[ quoted text not captured ] If the vampire isn't at 0 blood, they're not required to hunt (barring outside effects). So, yes, you could rescue the vampire, tap the coven to put two blood on the vampire, and then they could go do something else besides hunt. http://groups.google.com/groups?q=author:LSJ+heidelburg+hunt&start=10&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=38144635.6EF557C%40wizards.com&rnum=11 --Colin McGuigan

but correct me if i'm wrong but you are alowed to hunt more then once during a turn now ? - so as far as i understand u must allways hunt if u have 0 blood and there for there is no time to tap the coven when the minion is out of torper. This is how i understand it please correct me if im wrong (and sorry for the bad spelling ect.) [ quoted text not captured ]

The Coven can be tapped between actions. Before the mandatory hunt. Afterwards, the hunt is no longer mandatory, since the vampire has blood. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

As LSJ says, there is time between actions to do non-action stuff. A mandatory hunt just means that the _next_ action you take has to be a hunt action. It doesn't mean that you're not allowed to do other (non-action) stuff... DaveZ Atom Weaver
