Card text migrations in Tenth Anniversary

Here's a list of the functional changes found in the Tenth Anniversary set. Anneke: Can block even if "[6.2.2.1] Who May Attempt to Block" would exclude her, just like Eagle's Sight's effect. It doesn't allow the Methuselah to block with Anneke after declining to block. Antoinette DuChamp: Celerity actions and combat have increased cost, not a burn blood side effect. (Note that the new version is misprinted -- swapping capacity for group. Errata: Antoinette is still group 2 and has a capacity of 1). Blood Bond: is put into play. Camille Devereux, The Raven: Is not two different vampires. (1994 Jyhad version of Camille, 1995 VTES version of Raven, and this card all contest one another, as they are the same vampire). Ghoul Escort: is once again only employable by a vampire (The 1995 VTES version had inadvertently dropped the "All Kindred" designation of the Jyhad version). Giovanni Acceptance, Invitation Accepted, Ravnos Acceptance, and Revocation of Tyre: work on in-play vampires as well as vampires brought into play later. Sect change is optional, but only choosable when the acceptance enters play or when the vampire enters play. Magdalena Schaefer: Thaumaturgy strikes have increased cost, not a burn blood side effect. Mariel, Lady Thunder: She inflicts the damage (interesting only for effects like Memories of Mortality). Patrizia Giovanni: Retrieval actions have increased cost, not a burn blood side effect. Tainted Vitae: is put into play. Veiled Sight: If the acting vampire has negative stealth, the effect will raise it to zero. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

When the target changes, all "I don't block" declarations are forgotten, Anneke or not. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Does that mean that the timing of the Anneke block attempt window is now the same as that of Eagle's Sight/Falcon's Eye (whereas previously, it was after those effects)? -- charles lechasseur - da...@novideospamtron.ca

Any abuse in sight for Group 1 Gangrel? (I still don't see here an update to First Strike effects over Dodge...) Just my opinion. .- Luis Duarte

Any abuse in sight for Group 1 Gangrel? It is not necessary to print any more cards at all, ultimately. The factors involved in printing X led to this result, yes. > (I still don't see here an update to First Strike effects over Dodge...) Non Sequitur. First Strike vs. Dodge is currently in its proper form. No change is pending or delayed. [ quoted text not captured ]
