My worhsipful and great prince has allowed me to ask of the mighty scroll of newsgroup a few questions, as long as I don't embarass him... And before I ask the first question, I already did a quick little search on google for the answer to the first one to no avail... 1.) Nepata's gotta' hunt, she's low on blood. Oh NO! I've been blocked by Meshenka! Oh, but he's a kind Meshenka, and S:CE for me with Meld with the Land, so I don't have to (but I do so anyway to cycle cards for bleed modifiers... bwahaha). Now I'm untapped, and with no blood... a) May I still hunt (no repeat actions thing and what not...)? b) If I can't hunt, may I do something else (like... oh... Enchant Kindred). 2.) So... Some misc. vampiric minion must hunt... but before I do that, may I tap the Hidelberg Castle to give him blood from another minion? Sure, I can't tap it in the middle of an action, but I'm not in the middle of an action... as I'm the acting minion, I get to choose the order of things that happen simultaneously... right? 3.) [not really a question...] Just to get it straight... Boy Toy Kindred Spirits... Zebulon masks... oh wait, Zeb can't because he doesn't have dementation... so Zeb can't play mask... right? 4.) [as above] My Black Magician tries to steal a discipline. Zeb takes over with Mask... oh, wait... no he doesn't... Zeb can't play a mask... right? 5.) Inferior Revelations (much better than Superior rev.)... I look at my prey's hand... then I choose a card to get axed. a) Can I tap Slaughter House while looking at it, and THEN cause a card to get axed from his hand? b) Does he replace the card he discards while I'm still looking at his hand (that is... do I get to see the card he draws to replace the one I axed)? um... that's all for now... ~SV

Yes. > 3.) [not really a question...] Just to get it straight... Boy Toy > Kindred Spirits...

What I believe he is asking is "Inferior Revelations lets me look at his hand and force a discard. Do I get to see what card he replaces the discard with before I lose the ability to look at his hand?" I think the b) question is separate from the a) question. I may be wrong though. Matt

[ quoted text not captured ] Ah. Right. I though he was talking about the Slaughterhouse discards. No, you don't get to see the replacement card. [ quoted text not captured ]

In a multi-part action like that it can get a smidge confusing. Matt

[ quoted text not captured ] Yeah; if it weren't for those rules, I could really make some killer decks. :-) [ quoted text not captured ]
