OK Jon, In case the UAQ list doesn't occupy too much of your time, Can a vampire pay an arbitrary X to prevent X+1 damage, even if there isn't that much damage to prevent? The rules say that you can't play more cards than you need, but you can play one card that prevents more damage than you have. For instance, you could play superior Undead Persistence to prevent two damage, even when you've only taken one. So, if you have a famous vampire whose had his Beast Drawn out (superior, doing one damage at the end of the round), can you spend all of his blood to prevent (All+1) damage, even if he only gets punched for one? -- L.
