Hi everyone, please confirm: Reaction cards can only be played by a ready, untaped minion. (D) actions can only be blocked by one of her ready untapped minions. Undirected actions can only be blocked by ready untapped minions of prey and predator. This means that I can not block my grandprey usinga tapped Vampire with a 2nd tradition and an Eagle's Sight. ES can not be played, since the minion is not untaped. 2nd can not be played before, since there is no legal target for the block. Correct? Regards, -Markus

YES, by one of the targeted meth's minion. Tapped vampires can still block using certains circonstances (2nd Trad, Wake with evening's freshness...) Some other methusela can interfere by using specific cards (Eagle sight, Anneke, Falcon's eye...)

Correct? you are CORRECT on all points. find a way to untap the vampire (or let him play reaction cards as if untapped) prior to playing eagle sight. Example : play Forced Awakening, then Eagle sight, then 2nd Tradition. It's2 card and is a bit complicated but it's the method you'll want to use to be able to block passing all those restrictions. reyda > Regards, > > -Markus

Err, no ! speak with the spirits.. yeah that's it ! sorry =) reyda... eagle eye of the dead falcon lurking in the shroud of absence of the mind's wrath projection... anyway... =D

(e.g. burning a Haven Uncovered that you control) -- James Coupe "Never give in to them," she whispered.
