1. How exactly does Vast Wealth work? I put it on a ready minion at my master phase. OK. Now, when does the minion have to take the action? Immediately after master phase? Sometime on that same turn? Whenever I want to on any turn thereafter? And, what is the action that the minion is taking? Equipping? Going through my library? Both? If both, does my minion get +2 stealth (+1 from card text and +1 inherent for equipping)? 2. Can more than one damage modifier be played in one round of combat (for example: Increased Strength, Wolf Claws, Fists of Death, Torn Signpost)? I'm guessing no, since it seems very abusive... 3. Can I target two retainers with one strike? (example: I manuever long range, use a Thrown Sewer Lid, and attempt to burn Wolf Companion (2 life) and Jackie Thurman(1 life)). 4. Who can take an action to use cards that say "requires a ready prince or jusitcar"? If I have a "ready prince or justicar," shouldn't any of my minions be able to use it? Also, can 5th Tradition be aimed at the acting vamp? KM

He can take the action at any time during your minion phase (if he is ready, untapped, etc.) > And, what is the action that the minion is > taking? Equipping? Going through my library? Both?

That action has a total of +1 stealth. (Just like a vote is at +1 stealth, even though the card says "+1 stealth" in addition to the rulebook). > 2.

Yes. > 3. Can I target two retainers with one strike? (example: I manuever long > range, use a Thrown Sewer Lid, and attempt to burn Wolf Companion (2 life) > and Jackie Thurman(1 life)). No. > 4.

No. Just as an action that requires a ready Gangrel (e.g., Ritual Challenge) can only be taken by ready Gangrel, an action that requires a ready prince or justicar can only be taken by a ready prince or justicar. > Also, can 5th Tradition be aimed at the acting > vamp?
