Hello, I havn't seen the Giant Blood from Vampire so I'm not sure if they clarified it or not. Can you use Giants Blood on an uncontrolled Vampire (one face down with no transfers on him yet) to bring it up to full blood capacity and be ready at the end of the turn? Scenario: My predator used GB on the first turn on one of his uncontrolled 11 capacity Vamps from the new set and claimed that the Vampire gets all 11 blood and is now ready. Is this right? Has the Vampire card been changed? Can you tell I'm a newbie? :]

It doesn't say that it may affect an uncontrolled vampire - therefore it cannot. This is true of both the Jyhad and the VTES versions. -- L.

Unless he can prove to you and the rest of the players that that is the ruling then he is out of luck (IMHO). Bunny
