Fists of Death/The Rack?

In my ongoing confrontations with my brother another pair of questions appeared: FISTS OF DEATH Is it legal to play more than one of these cards before a combat starts? This will make it possible to have way too high hand damage (Reason: my bro tried to play 3 of these one Bianca before taking on Ulugh Beg) To me it seems massively cheesy. THE RACK If the chosen vampire for this master is in torpor, does it still gain 2 blood each round? The reason for the question is that the desc. does _not_ say "Ready Vampire" as on the other hunting ground cards. Logically, I'd assume that control of "The Rack" (redlight district) would mean unrestricted feeding there (ie 2 blood). If a vampire is torporous I don't see it hanging out in nightclubs.

The currently selected vampire will continue to get blood as long as it remains uncontested.

RE: Fists of Death I thought you can't play more than one of any card during a combat. Eric

(I believe this is all of them) There is no restriction on playing the same combat card within the same cobat or combat round. So you can play a Flash to get a manuever, another Flash to counter a manuever by the other player, and then another Flash for a press. When I first started playin I assumed that there was a restriction on combat cards, mainly because each other type of card, action, action mod, reaction seemed to have a limit of one of each type of card per minion. But that isn't the case with combat cards. Hope this helped stephen
