I read some previous postings about this subject and i am a little bit confused, so please help me clear this out. 1. Can i play blood fury when the opposing minion is at long range just to get it out of my hand ? (i think no) if yes, if the opposing minion strikes with a weapon from long range, is the damage prevented ? (i think no) 2. If soul burn is dodged, does the "weapon inflict no damage" thing take effect or not ? (i believe not) Does soul burn prevents weapon damage only from additional strikes ? or does it prevent weapon damage from the initial strike, too ? Thanks in advance.

Dodge protects the dodger from all effects of the strike. > Does soul burn prevents weapon damage only from additional strikes ? > or does it prevent weapon damage from the initial strike, too ? From the currently-resolving strike (if any) and any further strikes in the same round (if any). That is, it negates weapon damage from the initial strike if Soul Burn is also an initial strike and the weapon strike is not done with first strike (the latter can be overcome by making the Soul Burn strike also at first strike, of course). -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Card text is "Only usable at close range", of course, which is why Blood Fury cannot be played at long range. :-) Josh takes no damage from typos this round

You know, I actually cut-n-pasted the text at first, but this /wonderful/ MS Outlook wouldn't paste it as plain text (even though it was cut from a plain text file), so I deleted it and typed it in (poorly, apparently) by hand. Sigh. [ quoted text not captured ]
