Like all master cards with a clan symbol, you only need a vampire of that clan in order to play it. Since the hunting grounds don't restrict themselves to giving blood to a given clan, they can give blood to any of your ready vampires.

Tom, here's a couple of questions my group has brought up: 1) Tournament Magic has the "four of a card" limit thing, and many of the people I know who play it use that rule in normal play; is the same limit (or one of another #) suggested for Jyhad? Are there Jyhad Tournament rules yet? (How does everyone else out there do this?) 2) Each of the Hunting Grounds has a clan symbol which means that you must control a vampire of that clan to bring it into play. That much my group agrees on, but there are a couple of people who think that it should also mean that only vampires of that clan gain gain blood because of it (even though the text says nothing of the sort, yes.) I believe this to be wrong. Is it? -bopo k93...@hobbes.kzoo.edu "Pretty rowdy behavior for Jesus.

I don't feel this limit is really necessary for casual play unless one guy has decided to be a jerk and put in 10 fame and 10 day operations with a ton of bleed modifiers. I personally play with very few duplicates in my deck because I use a lot of unique cards. If someone decides the way they want to play is with 30 Wake with Evenings Freshness, I would let them because with that many duplicates they would be easy prey for me and all their vampires would end up in torpor from blocking so much. You can make up any house rule you feel improves the game provided that everyone agrees. >2) Each of the Hunting Grounds has a clan symbol which means that you must>control a vampire of that clan to bring it into play.
