If a "Fall of the camarilla" event is removed from play (either through ousting of his controller or Black Hand Ritual), all camarilla vampire stop being independent and they become camarilla again. a) Do the camarilla vampires recover their titles too? b) Assuming yes to previous question, if they were contesting titles when Fall of camarilla was played, I guess these titles get contested again? c) If a camarilla vampire became liason (See "Rise of Nepthtali") under "fall of the camarilla", when it is removed and he becomes camarilla again, I guess he loses the liason title? Then, if he was contesting the liason with another vampire, he yields it inmediately and the other vampire gets the title inmedately, or does he have to wait for his turn to get the title? Thanks a lot.

Yes. Same as if, eg, Arika goes Into the Fire (losing her Inner Circle title), and then goes Out of the Frying Pan. The only instances where they wouldn't get their title is if they had gotten a new one in the meantime (Rise of the Neptahli), or if someone had contested theirs (eg, Gilbert Duane goes Into the Fire, and while Sabbat, someone calls Praxis Seizure: Miami. Gilbert immediately yields.) (this would be impossible in the Fall of the Camarilla scenario...just stating). > b) Assuming yes to previous question, if they were contesting titles > when Fall of camarilla was played, I guess these titles get contested > again?

Yes, if he's ineligible by sect, he immediately yields. --Colin McGuigan

It is possible with Fall of the Camarilla, if Gilbert Duane went "into the fire" then someone calls *Crusade*: Miami. As the archbishopry contests with princedoms of the same city Gilbert would then yield his title automatically. (while calling the Praxis Miami is impossible under the Fall of the Camarilla, contesting the title is not, since it can be contested by sabbat and independant titles.) Not arguing your point, just pointing out the possibility. -JTP -John

When fall of camarilla is removed, Gilbert would become camarilla again and get his title back. Why can't he contest it as usual with an archbishopry of the same city?

Liaison is an Independent title, by card text. Correct. He would lose it until he becomes Independent again. >> Then, if he was >> contesting the liason with another vampire, he yields it inmediately >> and the other vampire gets the title inmedately, or does he have to >> wait for his turn to get the title? > > Yes, if he's ineligible by sect, he immediately yields.

No. There's no effect lurking around that is trying to give him his old title back. A title was irrevocable lost when replaced by another title (and when yielded, for that matter - you don't get the yielded title back when the vampire to whom you ceded the title leaves play, for instance). >>if Gilbert Duane >>went "into the fire" then someone calls *Crusade*: Miami.

Because he's already yielded it. You can't yield and then later choose (without an external effect) to pick up the fight again. There's no effect lurking around trying to give him his title back when he becomes Camarilla again. [ quoted text not captured ]

No. Anytime you gain a new title, you have forfeited any previous titles. If you merge Marcus Vitel and call a Crusade, he does not revert to Prince if you use Out of the Frying Pan on him. Instead, he retains the Crusade on him, and will revert to Archbishop if you use Into the Fire (and if no one has contested the Crusade city in the meantime). > > if Gilbert Duane > > went "into the fire" then someone calls *Crusade*: Miami.

It is as stated above. Gilbert is considered to have yielded the title while Sabbat (essentially "in absentia") and so cannot contest it when he returns to the Cam. For all of the official rules text on this, see section 10 of the rulebook - "Vampire Sects." Eric Simon Prince of Chicago Anarch Newsletter Writer
