Does Isanwayen's special ability work on other players' turns? Meaning can I get him a Homunculus and stack master phase actions for my next turn? If his ability only works on your own turn, then does it work only in your master phase? Meaning can I use his ability in my untap phase and untap him with e.g. a Homunculus and gain another additional master phase action, or just untap him after using the ability? Isanwayen [DOM] [MYT] [OBT] Kiasyd Capacity: 6 Group: 4 Sabbat: While ready, Isanwayen may tap to give you an additional master phase action. Rescuing him from torpor costs an additional blood. Cold iron vulnerability. Homunculus Retainer with 1 life. [pro] During any Methuselah's untap phase, the vampire with this retainer can burn 1 blood to untap. [PRO] As above, but Homunculus has 2 life.

OOT master rule specfically says you can only play one OOT master outside your turn, and this doesn't allow you to play more OOT Masters. So yes, you could get extra MPAs, you just couldn't use them. You can't "store" master phase actions until your Master phase. Just like if Anson dies before your master phase, you only have one Master Phase Action. That said, I am almost always wrong, so let's wait for LSJ. best - chris

[ quoted text not captured ] Correct. MPA can only be used during your master phase, so can onbly be meaningfully gained during your master phase. (Similarly "Discard Phase Actions").

[ quoted text not captured ] Thank you for the clarification. Guess I'll just have to go with Rutor's Hand.

[ quoted text not captured ] Rutor's Hand works only on your minion phase, Homonculus works only on untap phase -so you cannot use Isanwayens special ability twice unless you come up with a plan to untap her during your master phase. This was the case all the time, you cannot store your MPA. Good luck with that :)
