When bringing an ghoul ally into play (from your library) is the card placed face up, face down, or doesn't matter. There seems to be some strong opinions on all directions. Thanks, ***Jedimike*** Anarch of L.A.

It may be convenient to turn them face down to avoid confusion (after showing the card to all players), but if any player wants to know which card it is, she's free to look. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

I thought all face down cards are considered "Out of play" Or is it that all "out of play" cards are face down? "LSJ" <vte...@white-wolf.com> wrote in message news:<cbcm53$por$1...@hartwell.cse.sc.edu>... [ quoted text not captured ]

[ quoted text not captured ] ? That's why the AA cards are face up. What's the question? [ quoted text not captured ]

(and only a little bit confusing when tapped, provided you always tap your cards to the same side) However, as a call to Steve Weick, etc, can we get Absimilard cards like the corruption and anarch marker cards? then we could just remove the top card of our library from play and put an AA Ghoul card in play instead. I'm planning on making up some for myself, but real ones would be much cooler. salem domain:canberra http://www.geocities.com/salem_christ.geo/vtes.htm (replace "hotmail" with "yahoo" to email)
