Toreador Grand Ball Cardtype: Master Clan: Toreador Cost: 1 pool Cardtext: Master. Put this card in play. Choose 2 ready Toreador you control. The first Toreador's nonbleed actions cannot be blocked. The second Toreador does not untap as normal during the untap phase; tap the second Toreador. Any minion may burn this card as a (D) action; Nosferatu get 1 stealth when attempting that action. If the clan of the unblockable toreador changes (ie/ they are deranged) are they still unblockable? I am guesssing no, but the wording would suggest as the card is put into play......

The card being put in play doesn't suggest otherwise. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

The second Toreador does not untap as normal during the untap phase; tap the second Toreador. Any minion may burn this card as a (D) action; Nosferatu get 1 stealth when attempting that action. Q1: If the unblockable toreador changes clan (eg/ is deranged) are they still unblockable? The card text seems to suggest this criteria need only be met when the card is put into play. Is this correct? Q2: If the tapped minion is removed from play (eg/banished) and then brought back into play, are they still considered the original minion and must tap if the TGB is still in play? Thankyou for your time and energy. -- Direct access to this group with http://web2news.com http://web2news.com/?rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad

Seem to be losing the ability to understand written english. You mean, "No they are not unblockable anymore" Correct? [ quoted text not captured ]

You mean, > "No they are not unblockable anymore" Correct? Right. Only the Toreador (the first one) is unblockable. If he's not a Toreador, then he's not the first Tory, and he can be blocked.

Therefore, if the other one changes clans, then he can untap as normal, since he is no longer "The second Toreador", correct?

If the second toreador changes clan, he can untap.. and the first toreador is still unblockable. [ quoted text not captured ]

What about if the tapped Toreador is Banished and brought back into play later? Does he still not untap as normal because of Grand Ball? Probably yes as card / effect is still in play? Rob

What if the second Toreador is Banished and its controller then brings *another* copy of that Toreador into play? I always thought that a Banished vampire that came back into play was considered an entirely new vampire as far as cards in play were concerned. Of course the master and minion cards placed ON the vampire will stay with him/her (as per card text on Banishment), but how can other cards in play keep the connection? is this true of all cards in play? for example: Contract, The Rack? do they still apply when the Banished vampire come back into play?

Banishment should be more consistent. That is, Banished vampires "remember" everything, just like contested vampires do. http://www.thelasombra.com/rules/RTR5-100.htm -- James Coupe PGP Key: 0x5D623D5D EBD690ECD7A1FB457CA2 Hi!

A different card is certainly a different vampire. > I always thought that a Banished vampire that came back into play was > considered an entirely new vampire as far as cards in play were concerned.

[ quoted text not captured ] From what I understand, it target's the card itself... Rather then the vampire... Rack is assigned to the card, not the vampire... If you make a prince of new york out of Raven... And raven is burnt, and another raven was brought back into play, the new raven isn't a prince... Cards target a particular vampire card, rather then all copies of the same vampire... You know... I just wanna see toreador with fortitude/Force of will bleeding... You know, daring the dawn it + aire it, and unblockable rescue... Annabelle Triabell is the first toreador... Put a foritude skill card on her... Takes an actions to give all toreadors +1 bleed... Untaps, hunts/call a vote... Force of will bleeds, back up with daring the dawn just incase they block... Freak drives in torpor... And then rapid heal herself out... =D Foritude skill card can go on the second toreador just to get him burnt as well... minion tap that vampire to 1... then force of will bleed... =D [ quoted text not captured ]
