Yes. The B-block is superfluous, BTW. C could mask and re-bond without the
intervening block attempt.

Wouldn't the text on Bonding make that impossible? "After playing this card,
you cannot play another action modifier to further increase the bleed for this
action." Or, is the "you" in the text above the acting minion and not the
player. Or, am I just reading this wrong?
Govern + Conditioning, Mask to another minion and then Condition again? I knew
I could do this with Command of the Beast at superior but I thought that was
just because it lacked the "cannot play another" text of the other cards.

Yes, yes it would.
My mistake. I was having a Jyhad-text flashback episode, apparently.

Replace "Bonding" with "superior Command of the Beast" and it works, yes.

Oh, those good ol' days huh? ;)

How does Mask work with Forest of shadows? Can one malk (M1) have his
stealth increased to say +3 stealth for a turn and simply have other
vampires mask all the actions at +3 stealth that M1 attempts after the
first block? (forest card requirements)
it's been buggin a friend of mine for a while now...
thanks,

No. Modifications to the minion (inherent +bleed, Forest of Shadows
stealth, etc.) only apply to that minion.

Hmm. Couldn't you use that minion until you hear "no further block
attempts" and then Mask the action?

Yes. That won't cause the previous acting minion's stats to transfer over
to the new acting minion, though, as above.

True enough, but that is effectively the same thing here (except
for possible bleed bounce); the action goes through as if it had
the stealth from Forest of Shadows. (That card is still rarely worth
playing, though...)
