Something strange happened with the first attempt, lets make another try :) I recently started playing the game, and have a few Jyhad/V:TES questions: 1. Can a minion have two identical retainers (for example two Raven Spy) 2. Can a minion have and use two identical equipment cards (Two flak jackets)? 3. I read in this newsgroup that the clan hosers having clan symbols in VTES is a misprint, however the errata I have read doesn't mention this. Is there official errata anywhere that contains this ruling? 4. Another fact learned from this newsgroup is that Steal Blood doesnt burn a vampire in the full game when you steal all the blood the vampire has. Is this clarified in any ruling anywhere? From the VTES rules I would assume that the vampire should burn. 5. Can Anneke really block any Metusalehs vampires? 6. If a vampire with 2 current blood is hit by 2 normal and 2 agg. damage in one strike, can I choose to prevent the 2 agg damage and only take the normal damage, or do I have to prevent normal damage first?

Good luck finding it on an official FAQ, as always. >5. Can Anneke really block any Metusalehs vampires? Yes (card text). She cannot block her own Methuselah, of course. >6.

You prevent any damage you like. Normally, you would choose to prevent the agg first. -- L.
