Here's how it went: This was a five player multiplayer game. I was playing a Tremere first round only/political deck(lots of Consagneous Condemnation/Domain Challenge) The only problem was that I couldnt generate necessery Wakes and intercept when the Ventrue Player got his Seizures and Justicar, and I lost political power(first round Tremeres can't eliminate political opponents like the second round cards can). In response, I would discard, and tap the Barrens, as well as do usless things like throwing down a political card every time the Ventrue would vote, and using misdirection to tap zero minions. Needless to say, my library quickly exhausted. Then Millicent Smith came into play. After she was pased around the table three or four times, the Ventrue's predator had used Blood Dolls to gain a hoarde - about 25 - blood. I announced my intent to withdraw, and my Ventrue predator couldn't afford to sacrifice any of his big, armed, skilled, well titled, vampires to stop my withdraw. -tony, Prince of Iowa City

Yes, I know it's very difficult, and no, I'm not doing it wrong. It's just a matter of diplomacy. I see the inevitable winner rolling my way, and I know I can't stand up against the onslaught so I make a deal. I help him end this quicker and easier and he lets me live to withdraw. Voila! I get to keep my points. Interaction and diplomacy are the keys.
