[LSJ] Piper & Charisma

Hello, Can an anarch use Piper and pay 1 lees pool for recruiting an ally ? Charisma Cardtype: Master Unique master. Put this card on a ready vampire. This vampire's recruit ally actions cost 1 less blood or pool (but never less than 0 blood or pool). Artist: Talon Dunning Piper Cardtype: Master Master. Requires a ready anarch. A ready untapped anarch you control employs or recruits a retainer or ally from your hand (requirements and cost apply as normal). This is not an action and cannot be blocked. Tap that anarch. Artist: Andrew Trabbold Sorry if it was already answered but I couldn't find it... Nicolas.

[ quoted text not captured ] I was thinking about this combo a few times over the last few months, but decided it'd be 'no' so didn't bother asking, because of the whole action/not action thing. Similarly, Charisma on Antonio D'Erlette doesn't work with his ability. The reason I started thinking about it though was because of the below from the 7/7/7 RTR: "All cost-affecting cards operate no matter how the card is played ("as normal" or otherwise). " -- salem (replace 'hotmail' with 'gmail' to email)

No stealth required and they can Sudden the Piper, but can't cancel your War Ghoul or whatever. Pack Alpha is another example of a retaining that is not an action. Brandon

But what about Piper and a vampire that pay one less pool or blood when recruit an ally, like Little Taylor of Prague, does it works? Little Taylor of Prague Sabbat: When the Tailor recruits an ally or employs a retainer that requires Tzimisce or Vicissitude, the cost is reduced by one blood or pool. +1 bleed.

Yes. Piper card text: "recruits" Little Tailor of Prague card text: "recruits"
