Here's the thing: - When played as an action modifier during an action that costs blood, does it reduce the action's cost, since it's payed when succesful (after High Orun played)?

LSJ

[ quoted text not captured ] Yes. (Also if Petaniqua takes a Daimoinon-requiring action and is blocked, but uses Blessing of Durga Syn to steal Textbook Damnation from a blocking minion and then taps the Ambulance to continue the action, the Textbook will reduce the cost of the action.)

[ quoted text not captured ] Wow. And Josh didn't even have time to *ask* the question before you answered it. :-) - D.J.

Because in http://groups.google.com/group/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/msg/44badd3b79a8a773 you said that High Orun does not apply to the action card because of High Orun's "For the remainder of this action, cards" text. I hope I'm wrong, because I'd like to see High Orun a little stronger than it currently is, but I like consistent rulings. Later, ~Rehlow

RTR 7/7/07 changed that as an incidental effect. Since the card no longer says "to play", it works on the action card.

I have figured out how to search most things with the new Google Search and I can't find them (7/7/07 7/7/7 07/07/07 all turn up nothing useful). I tried looking on White-Wolf.com and couldn't find them out their either. Thanks, ~Rehlow

I was playing that wrong in my "Lucian bleeds for 12" deck, because I read the earlier ruling and never saw the later one. Makes High Orun even better in that deck. Although it still doesn't reduce Force of Personality (sup) or Approximation of Loyalty (inf)... if only there were a 08/08/08 ruling that said High Orun could be played in the "as played" window.
