Is there any way you could, in the future, add the discipline symbol to the master cards
that provide bonus disciplines to vampires? Just printing the symbol on the side of the
card would be an immense help, IMHO. You could easily position the card under the
vampire so that the bonus blood point _and_ the discipline could be seen easily. Right
now you can't. When I'm playing, I simply match the symbols on the cards in my hand to
the ones on my vampires to find out what I can do, I don't always think to see what the
name of the discipline is.

I think that a better way would be to print the symbol in the text of
the card, rather than on the border. The reason is that border symbols
in this game are costs, and you wouldn't want to imply that you needed
to have the discipline before you could be given it by the master
card. And yes, I'm sure people would be confused about this,
regardless of how good a case you can make from the rules for this
being an impossible interpretation; intuition is a wonderful thing,
sometimes...

It has been noted that the discipline symbols should appear on the
Skill cards. Expect this to happen at some point, but I don't know
when it will (largely depends on whether Jyhad will have "beta" cards...)

Let me second this suggestion; also include the symbol for clans
every time you mention them by name.

Personally, I'd rather see the symbol for the discipline added to the line
BELOW the card, next to the +1 cap symbol...so you can stack the cards and
show that last line and not have to worry about the left edge showing.
Just me, of course.
I also second including the symbol for the clans on a card, perhaps also on
the bottom line...make it a "reminder" line.
My opinion, of course.
