2 Questions

I have two questions 1) How does combate work, and 2) I had a friend tell me that the "Prince of Boston" is a rare card, is this true? if so how much is it worth? Michael O'Connor Michael....@prodigy.com http://pages.prodigy.com/CrazyMi

Well, Praxis Seizure: Boston is a rare card, but so are all the other Praxis Seizure cards, not counting the expansions. Praxis Seizure: Boston is a vote that gives the acting vampire the title of Prince of Boston. Cardano, the Prince of Boston, is of Vampire rarity, just like all other vampires. "Worth" is a very relative thing. Don't expect a really standard price. John Baker

Any specific questions? : 2) I had a friend tell me that the "Prince of Boston" is a rare card, : is this true? if so how much is it worth? "Praxis Seizure: Boston" is a rare card. You can get one for anywhere from .50 to 5.00. However, the vampire who is prince of Boston (Cardano, I think) is just as common as any other vampire. All the vampires have equal rarity. John W.

I would reccomend reading the rules for starters and then watching a few games to see how it works. If you still have questions then I would suggest a quick visit to Rulemongers Webpage. Inside there is a comprehensive step by step combat turn sequence. In regards to the 2nd question you should be aware that vampires have their own rarity designated as V (not R as your friend would have you believe.) Some vampires are in demand due to their usefulness but they are not rare by any stretch of the word. WOTC has a complete listing of rarities if you need to have a look. Cheers, Karl

I when to a web site today and think that I might have sorted the combat out, but do have on last question, If no combate cards are played do both vampires take one point of damage and combate end? Michael O'Connor Michael....@prodigy.com http://pages.prodigy.com/CrazyMike

Sorry if it is a repost, but I did not get any answer to the following: May an untapped vampire with no blood left block an action ? I suppose yes, but I'm not sure. Thanks, sL

> I have two questions > 1) How does combate work, and Pretty much goes like this: 1) Determine if combat happens (I intercepted your action, Bums Rush, etc..) 2) Note: The agressor plays his cards first (allowing the other player to react) 3) Pre-Range cards are played (example: Trap) 4) Maneuvers are played to determine the range of combat (short or long) 5) Strikes are then announced (agressor first), if range is long and nobody has ranged strikes - They "wave" at each other (no damage dealt). 6) Damage Resolution (in order: Srike:Combat Ends, Dodge, First Strike, Other Strikes). One would think that First Strike would take precedence over a dodge, but I believe that's the way it goes. 7) If additional Strike was used, resolve additional damage 8) Check to see if anyone presses to continue / end combat 9) If a new round start at #1. Note that some combat cards may still be in effect (lasts duration of combat), some weapons may only be used once "each" combat and will be unusable in subsequent rounds. That should be the jist of things, there is more but this should be enough to get you rolling. > 2) I had a friend tell me that the "Prince of Boston" is a rare card, > is this true? if so how much is it worth?

The only limitations on a vampire with no blood are that he has to hunt as an action when he gets the chance. Of course, if a vampire with no blood blocks, he's likely to be headed to torpor or the ash heap unless you have a trick up your sleeve... -- //------------------------\ /--------------------------------\\ | Andy Kaiser | Only a life lived for others | | Phoenix SysAdmin Team | is a life worth living. | | gka...@phoenix.lhup.edu | -Albert Einstein | >--------------------------X----------------------------------< | 213B North Hall | Until you find something worth | | Lock Haven University | dying for, you're not really | | Lock Haven, PA 17745 | living. -Rebecca St. James | \\------------------------/ \--------------------------------//

An untapped minion with no blood _during_ your turn must hunt. On someone elses turn you could use them to block. (A malkavian with the madness network would hunt in between turns if he had no blood.) Richard | Don't let yourself get in your own way. - Wicker |
