If I bleed my prey for 1 can I play Major Boon to take the bleed and defer a bigger bleed to him later?

No. From the online rulings and errata: "Any player (not just "you") can modify the bleed after the Boon, subject to the normal rules. Major Boon cannot be played by the controller of the acting minion." [RTR 19980707]

BTW: Speaking of Madness Network, "After another Methuselah has finished all of his or her minion phase actions, any untapped Malkavian can take an action (go clockwise if two or more attempt to take actions)." So this occurs after a Methusaleh's minion phase actions but is it still during that Methusaleh's minion phase? If Methusaleh A has finished his/her actions, and Methusaleh B's Malkavian decides to act, what happens if A wants to burn Temptation counters to take control of the acting vampire during the action? Thanks! Halcyan 2

Thanks! Actions * If the Methuselah loses control of the acting minion before the action is successful, then the action ends. [RTR 30-JUN-1997] [ quoted text not captured ]

When grannie came after me, it was late in the game. She had forgotten about the Major Boon. She tried to bleed me, I let it through, she pumped up the bleed, and then I told her to pay for it and that ousted her. I didn't get the six for ousting her, but it was funny.
