Hello,
All cardtexts are pasted at the end of this message.
I tried searching for these questions via the GoogleGroups, but I
couldn't find an answer (even though I'm sure I read some of those
around here).
* Brother's Blood
- Can it be played even when there is currently no damage to heal /
prevent destruction from?
- Suppose my Blood Brother gets hit by a Saturday Night Special +
Dragon's Breath Rounds, can BB allow me to heal once *and* prevent
destruction once?
* Delaying Tactics
Can it be played on a referendum called by Bujo?
If yes, what happens?
(I'm pretty sure I already read that one from the NG, the answers
being "yes" and "the political action card isn't moved from the ash
heap to the hand", but I can't find it...)
* Death Pact
The damage can only be changed if the vampire with the retainer is in
combat, right?
* Enticement
Suppose my Angra Mainyu burns the edge for stealth on an Enticement
action causing it to fizzle, can I still bleed this turn?
* Ex Nihilo
My vampire has Ex Nihilo and "treats aggravated damage as normal" (ex:
Concordance).
He is struck by an Ivory Bow. Does he burn blood counters?
I suppose so. Indeed, he has to handle 1 agg damage. Treating it as
normal doesn't change the nature of the damage (which Merrill's
cardtext would do) but rather have my vampire burn 1 blood to heal 1
agg.
* FBI Special Affairs Division
Suppose my Escaped Mental Patient blocks an action.
The acting vampire's strike is a handstrike for 0 damage (let's say he
has 0 str).
EMP's strike is to inflict strength+1 agg damage, from special
ability.
Does the acting vampire take 2 damage from FBI ?
* Final Loosening
Suppose Festivo dello Estinto is in play. A Sabbat vampire hunts.
Someone plays Final Loosening. Does the Sabbat vampire gain 1 blood,
or does he gain enough to reach full capacity?
* Ghoul Retainer
Suppose B with Ghoul Retainer and Sniper Rifle blocks A.
B sets the range to long with the Sniper. A plays Drawing out the
Beast.
Can the Sniper Rifle be used by the Ghoul Retainer on the initial
strike of the first round?
* Hidden Lurker
Is this ruling still valid: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/d823f2f2ba71752d
That is, can Hidden Lurker still be played when the blocking vampire
is in / going to torpor?
* Justicar Retribution
Justicar Retribution is played.
Does Arika with a Pentex Subversion burn?
Does Rabbat with a Legendary Vampire burn?
* Leandro
Leandro is in play.
Can I play Govern the Unaligned at superior, use the Powerbase
Montreal, .. if I decided to receive no transfers during my untap
phase?
Answer should be yes.
* Left for Dead
Suppose my Kyasid plays the Grandest Trick, and would be burned in
combat.
Can Left for Dead be played on it? If it can, does the minion become a
Kyasid after the action? Will its life counter become a blood counter?
* Legacy of Power
Suppose Michael Luther is rushed.
Can a justicar / inner circle controlled by his controller play Wake
(drawn from entering combat with Michael) + Legacy of Power?
* Life Boon
- A plays Parity Shift and takes 5 pool from B (who has 5 pool), and
gives 5 to C (who has 1 pool). Can C play Life Boon for 2 pool on B?
- Suppose A has played Gambit Accepted. D then plays Life Boon on A.
And then, the game ends as time-limit is reached. What are the
results? (A-> B -> C -> D -> E)
* Machine Blitz
What is the amount of damage a Kerrie would inflict as a strike ?
* Marcianna Giovanni
- Marcianna attempts to block, but lacks intercept. Can she tap
herself to grant herself the possibility to burn 1 blood to gain 1
intercept?
I guess she can.
- Can she then play a Wake-like and burn 1 blood to gain 1 intercept?
* Mariel, Lady Thunder
- FBI is in play. An ally with 1 life blocks a vampire. Mariel's
special is activated, burning the ally. Does the acting vampire suffer
2 damage from FBI?
* Marked Path
A plays Marked Path on an action which targets cards controlled by A
and B.
Can A burn the Marked Path when performing a (D) action which
target[s] is[are] only controlled by B?
* Meddling of the Semsith
Suppose I play Steely Tenacity with Meddling of the Semsith targetting
me.Can I edraw my Steely Tenacity from my ash heap after the end of my
minion phase?
* Merrill Mollitor
Suppose Merril's opposing minion strikes with the Ivory Bow + Target
Vitals. Can Merrill change the nature of the damage before the
prevention step?
If not (or if Merrill's controller decides to do things in another
way), can Merrill change the nature of the 1Agg after is it
successfully inflicted and before it is resolved?
In that case would the 2additional damage from Target Vitals be
aggravated?
* Mouthpiece
Can I play Mouthpiece to play Govern the Unaligned?
Answer should be no.
* New Inquisition
Is the pool loss from Fame handled before, after, or in the same
window New Inquisition gets replaced ? (would only matter for Extremis
Boon..)
* Olugbenga
- My prey has an Amaravati Mummy. I influence out Amaravati.
Can I use counters from Olugbenga to pay for the contest?
Should be yes.
- I control an Amaravati Mummy. My prey influences out Amaravati.
Can I use blood counters on Olugbenga to pay for the contest?
* Parity Shift
5 players remaining.
A (1 pool) plays Parity Shift and targets B (3 pool). A splits the
share this way: D gets 1, E gets 4.
- How much do D and E get if the referendum is successful ?
- B plays Direct Intervention on Bewitching Oration (going down to 2
pool). Who of D or E (if any) gets 1 less if the referendum is
successful?
Can C play Life Boon on B, and give him only 1 pool, when the
referendum is successful?
* Poison Pill
Lutz calls a Kine Resources Contested, assigns 3 to his prey and 1 to
his predator, and his prey plays Poison Pill. If the vote passes, how
much pool does Lutz' controller burns?
It should be 3.
* Psyche!
A plays Terror Frenzy.
Combat ends. B plays Psyche!. What is the cost of that Psyche! ?
* Shackles of Enkidu
Are they still an equipment when they are activated ? (Matters for
Can't Take it with You, for instance).
* Sleeping Mind
Can it be played at superior on an Exile inferior action?
I suppose so. The acting minion won't untap, if the action is
successful.
* Soul Gem of Etrius
If Beast is revealed, is he moved in the ready region?
Does he receive blood?
* Spell of Life
- Suppose two Shock Troops Potence were banished. Can I make allies of
them with a 5th Spell of Life, or would they contest each other?
- Same question if they were Potence and Quietus Shock Troops.
* Storage Annex
Can it be played when it's the only card in your hand ?
* Sword of Judgment
A and B (both !Brujah) are in combat.
A has the Sword of Judgment.
A's strike is to use the Sword. (strike: strength +1 damage, from the
melee weapon)
B's is to steal the Sword.
- Does A still have an additional strike?
- Dose B get an additional strike?
- Suppose A's strike is a hand strike. A then gets the additional
strike from the Sword. B plays superior Blur. A's additional strike is
a hand strike, B's is to steal the Sword. Can B strike with the Sword
as his second additional strike? ( = does it count as "using" the
Sword to gain 1 additional strike from it ?)
* Sword of Nuln
Suppose the Sword of Nuln inflicts 2 agg damage (with Sword of the
Righteous). The opposing vampire has a Repair the undead flesh. In
order to heal all the damage from the Sword, must he burn 8 blood?
I guess so.
* Telepathic Counter
Can it be played before declaring a block attempt?
Answer should be yes.
* Trap
A and B are in combat. A plays Trap. No other combat card is played.
If a Taste of Vitae is played on round 4, does the Trap retroactively
award a press to continue?
The answer should be no (or even "cardtext").
* Trochomancy
Do I have to say which 7/13 cards I want to remove from the game as I
play it?
I'm pretty sure I must.
* Undead Persistence
- Suppose I play Rumble, and, in the resulting combat, Undead
persistence.
Do I burn 1 pool at the end of combat?
- I enter combat with another vampire. I play Undead Persistence.
Combat ends, I play Psyche!.
Isn't my vampire wounded when the opposing could play Obedience (and
therefore, the new combat can't start) ? (this is about
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/bcc9e6babcd7b1d8
)
* Veil of Darkness
If Johannes Castelein plays Fanfare for Elysium, and Veil of Darkness
cancells it (a Master card is revealed), does the controller of Veil
of Darkness burn 2 pool?
* Walker Grimes
If I play a Rack and choose Walker Grimes, does the Rack cost 1
additional pool?
The answer should be yes, per similarity with Secure Haven.
* Winged Second
Can it make a strike once per round in each round? Only during the
first round?
Thanks,
(and sorry for the questions that have already been asked..)
