two questions

Hi there, I was wondering if it is possible to play taste of vitae before you decapitate a vampire. Second, if a vampire plays thoughts betrayed or hidden lurker and the opposing vampire has a .44 magnum, can he/she use the maneuver of that weapon (although he/she can't shoot with it)? Thanks again, jw.

Thought's betrayed only prevents the opposing minion from player strike cards, not from striking with a weapon. The minion could still maneuver with (and subsequently strike with) that weapon. For Hidden Lurker: no, since using that maneuver would require the minion to commit to a strike that he cannot perform. -- LSJ (vte...@wizards.com) V:TES Net.Rep for Wizards of the Coast.

Yes. Note, they can use the strike provided by the gun under Thoughts Betrayed. TB prohibits playing strike _cards_. A Gun on a vamp is a resourse in play, and is thus allowed as a strike option.
