Taste of Vitae

i'd like to know if this card can be used by an ally, also if the text says "this vampire etc etc.." ...a large use of these cards with high damage allyes (like akhenaten or similars) could be effective in a rush deck i think.. thnks! bye

> > No. "This vampire" means that it cannot be used by an ally. i have thinked so too, but the fact is i have asked that because in the questions section on the whitewolf page, about the "Soul Stealing" (necromancy) card,it is said that can be used also by an ally to replenish is life (at basic effect for an ally capable of basic necro actions like some mummies), but also in this card it is written "This vampire gains an amount of blood etc etc.." !!!! can you explain me this fact please? thnks! if soul stealing is really playable by an ally, i think taste of vitae can be played too....or i think wrong?thnks! bye

oh sorry, i have read now the text on my akhenaten card...."akhenaten may play cards of basic necromancy LIKE A VAMPIRE with capacity of 3" . sorry for the mistake, bye :(( NaNu Gurthu

[ quoted text not captured ] If an ally could play Taste of Vitae as a vampire, then he would get the effect as a vampire. There are no such allies. There are a few allies that can play Soul Stealing "as a vampire", however. They are treated as a vampire would be for that effect when they play it "as a vampire". [ quoted text not captured ]
