Can a card that reduces intercept be played only when needed - in the same way as stealth. Can it be played if there are no valid targets. eg, Can muse play "The Missing Voice" to reduce intercept of allies and younger vampires as she announces the action? Can she do it if there are no allies or younger vampires in play. --> J grail_pbem "at" hotmail.com

I take it that is yes to the example, not yes to the first question "Can a card that reduces intercept be played only when needed.......<snip>" --> J grail_pbem "at" hotmail.com
