A question that came up in last night's casual game: does Orun's added +2 capacity work vs Baltimore Purge's "who is not older than this vampire" clause when it triggers? And if yes, does it count the number of Orun on the minion at the time BP was played, or at the time it triggers (during BP player's untap)? We ruled that it did work, and that the effective capacity depended on the number of Orun on the minion at the time BP triggers.. but weren't totally sure. Orun: Master: trifle. Put this card on a Laibon. For non-Orun cards played by Methuselahs other than this Laibon's controller, this Laibon is considered to have 2 additional capacity. A Laibon gets an additional vote for every three Orun he or she has. If this Laibon successfully bleeds for more than 2 or successfully performs a (D) action against a non-mortal minion, he or she burns one Orun. Burn this card if this Laibon has more Orun and Aye than his or her capacity. Baltimore Purge: Action Requires a ready vampire. If this vampire is Ravnos, this action is at +1 stealth. Put this card on the acting vampire. During your untap phase, burn this card, and each other Methuselah chooses a ready vampire he or she controls who is not older than this vampire. If you control a ready Lasombra, you choose the vampires instead. This vampire and the chosen vampires go to torpor.
