"Perfidio may burn 1 blood to untap and attempt to block a (D) action that targets a location you control." Just to clarify, this is not limited to once per action, correct? That is, if Perfidio uses his ability, and the acting minion plays Form of Mist or Mirror Image to continue the action, can he burn a blood to untap and attempt to block again?

So if Perfidio is equipped with a Starshell Grenade Launcher, he can effectively reduce the stealth of an action directed at one of your locations by X at a cost of X blood... (he fails to block, taps the SGL, burns a blood to untap and attempt to block again. more stealth is added, and he repeats). Sounds like fun. :)

Why doesn't this fall in the during X do Y scheme? -- Direct access to this group with http://web2news.com http://web2news.com/?rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad

The word "during" does not appear in the text. "designer intent" is probably the issue. Carpe noctem. Lasombra http://www.TheLasombra.com
