1. A minion with basic fortitude takes an action that causes a minion controlled by another Methuselah to be burned. Can Path of Death and the Soul be tapped in time to add basic celerity to that minion so that Forced March can be played to untap it? 2. If the action was diablerie, would this happen before or after the blood hunt?

[ quoted text not captured ] i thought diablerie had to happen all in one step, which included from the burning to after the bloodhunt referendum. So before he's burned, you couldn't tap the Path because no one was burned yet, so then you'd have to wait until after the bloodhunt referendum? -- salem (replace 'hotmail' with 'yahoo' to email)

No. See 6.5.5.

Another theoretically neat combo I confirmed privately with LSJ a few months ago was: tapping PoDaS when burning your own minion (e.g through Daring the Dawn) when burning another minion (e.g by Eldest Command Undeath) to move a skill card before applying the aggravted damage applies and therefore trigger the Soul Gem on the Vampire. Haven´t found a good deck with it (yet), though. Perhaps one of you can.

[ quoted text not captured ] You could tap it to get a skill card which would increase your capacity enough to steal a Kholo card and survive a bloodhunt. Comments Welcome, Norman S. Brown, Jr XZealot Archon of the Swamp
