I have a question about out-of-turn master cards. Can they be played
in a two player game? I ask because in the Eternal Struggle rule
book, it makes it sound like you cannot. I don't remember exactly
what it said, but it was something to the effect that out-of-turn cards
are another methuselahs intereference in a conflict between two
other methuselahs, wanted or not. Any help will be appreciated.

Technically, according to the rulebook (7.2.1, pg.14), you may play a
Master Out-of-Turn whenever appropriate. If it is appropriate
to play, say, Frenzy during one of your own Minion's actions, then
you are welcome to do so.
The has been errata (mis-errata, IMHO) that you may only play Out-of-Turn
cards when it is not your turn. That is, you can't Sudden Reversal a
Frenzy played on you during your turn, for example.
Either way, you may still use Out-of-Turn Masters in a two-player game.

Yes, out-of-turn masters can be used in a two-player game.
The official rules say they cannot be used on your own turn,
based on an interpretation of "out-of-turn". Where we play,
an "out-of-turn" master can be played anytime it isn't your
own master phase. It just doesn't make sense to us that
a vampire that entered combat because it blocked an action
would give its Methuselah an opportunity to play Minor Boon
(for example), while a vampire that entered combat because
someone else blocked its action wouldn't give its Methuselah
the same opportunity.

Haven't seen the Eternal Struggle book, but essentially Out of turn cards
can be played whenever it's NOT your turn, regardless of the number of
players.

Well, The Eternal Struggle was written and published by White Wolf, not
Wizards of the Coast, so there are some inconsistencies and just plain
mistakes....in other words, yes, you can play the out-of-turn master card,
you just give up your master phase on your next turn....
