1. Probably a real minor, picky one - The 5th Tradition: Hospitality.
Would this be considered hospitality from the Methuselah who controls
the acting vampire, or is the acting vampire not able to be the
recepient of the hospitality, and therefore the blood must go to someone
else?
2. Political Action cards that say "Set of Methuselahs". Could a set
be just one?
3. Kine Resources Contested. Allocates 4 points between 2 or more
Methuselahs - if there are 2 Methuselahs left, can it be 4 and 0, or
would there have to be at least one for each Methuselah?
4. The Parthenon. Do you have to wait until your next turn to get a
second Master Phase, or can you get a second Master Phase immediately?
5. Blood Hunt action card. Can some one please give a brief
explanation of how this card could ber used, especially in the basic
version of the game? Would be much appreciated.
Thanks for any insight!

Textually, the blood comes from the blood bank, so the acting vampire
receives the blood.

Yup. You may choose one (as in Rumors of Gehenna, etc.).

No, the minimum value must be 1. With two people left, that means you
gotta take some of the brunt.

You only get the extra action during your master phase itself. When
you play the card, it's during the master phase, so you can gain it
immediately.

In terms of the basic game (sans intercept), a vampire with Blood Hunt
on it can be attacked by any vampire as a +1 stealth (thereby
unblockable) action.
Hope it helps.

It is considered nothing except card text. The acting vampire may be the
vampire chosen as the ebenficiary of the 5th, although some players have
house rules against this.

Yes. A "set" cannot be zero, however.

At least one point to each of the Methuselahs chosen.

You may tap the Parthenon during the same Master Phase that you play it.

A Prince uses the Bloodhunt action, naming his Prey's most capable blocker or
his Predator's most capable bleeder. Then, until that target is no longer
Ready, everybody enters combat with the victim (in turn).

Depends. Some groups say that it doesn't work on the acting
vampire, some say it does. I play that the acting vampire can fill
himself up. Others would disagree.

Yes.

Points divided between Methuselahs must give one of the Meth's
at least 1, or it's not divided between them.

Immediately.

Try the advanced version of the game as soon as you can, since
the basic V:teS version is rather limited. You have Rake, Prince of
Atlanta, and Anvil. Your opponent has Emerson Bridges, Prince of D.C.
and Jazz Wentworth.
Rake takes a +1 stealth action to call a Bloodhunt on Jazz,
since Emerson is a Prince. Anvil then takes the action allowed by the
Blood Hunt card to attack Jazz.

You're welcome. Good luck.
