Free States Rant Question

My question is does firebrand count as a title, or more directly does a vampire with firebrand get two vote on a free states rant? Free States Rant Political Card - Worth 1 Vote. Called by any Independent vampire at +1 stealth. Allocate X points among one or more ready vampires, where X is half the capacity of the acting vampire (rounded up). No more than 3 points can be allocated to a single vampire. Successful referendum means each vampire burns 1 blood for each point assigned. In this referendum, titles are worth 1 less vote each (even in the prisci sub-referendum), and burning the Edge for a vote is worth an additional vote. Name: Firebrand Cardtype: Political Action Political Card - Worth 1 Vote. Called by any anarch as a +1 stealth action. If this referendum is successful, put this card on the acting anarch. This anarch gets 1 additional vote during a political action. During your minion phase, this anarch can burn 1 blood to untap a ready younger anarch. Burn this card if this anarch goes to torpor. An anarch may have only 1 Firebrand.

I guess Firebrand does not count as a title because it愀 additional and it愀 only during polticial actions, but he gets only 1 vote anyway. So his 1 additional vote during political actions isn愒 reduced by Free States Rant and he can vote with 1 vote. -- johannes walch v:ekn germany - http://www.vekn.de/

Last post made me think, since currently building a deck around Polical Struggle. Follow-up Q: If votes were stolen through Political Struggle, then the "Titles worth one less vote" does not apply to this situation?

It only applies to titles, correct. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

You most assuredly get the vote from the firebrand. It is not a title.
