Repulsion, Action Modifier, Obeah/Presence, no cost [pre]: Only usable when the acting vampire's action is announced. If this action is blocked, the acting vampire gets 1 optional maneuver, only usble to maneuver to long range, during the resulting combat. [obe]: +1 stealth. [OBE]: Put this card on this vampire. This vampire gets +1 stealth. Burn this card if this vampire goes to torpor. This vampire with Repulsion cannot have or play another Repulsion. If you're trying to equip with a Repulsion in sup, and you get blocked, can you use another repulsion in inf to get the necessary stealth ? -- Yours, Orpheus, Prince of Marseille http://no.exit.free.fr (onlive novel) http://cypheranima.free.fr (goth band) news://news.zoo-logique.org/VTES-francophone audio...@yahoogroups.com

Repulsion is not equipment. Repulsion is not an action and therefore cannot be blocked. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

( typing this makes you feel great =D ) and remember, dear orpheus that you cannot make the same vampire play twice the same action modifier during an action. reyda

I don't understand. When do you put it ? When the minion does an action, like Brother's Blood ? If that's the case, it's MONSTRUOUS !! Is it ?

But then again, it may become a bit hard to cycle after you play it. Since a minion who has a Repulsion on him can't play another, you may end up wasting your discards on them. Halcyan 2

That's an Obeah card for you. Obeah seems one of the better disciplines from bloodlines. The vampires are very good too. In a sense it's a pity, but I can understand why they are scarce ! The three best Obe cards in my opinion are : - Spirit Marionette ('nuff said...) - Anaesthetic Touch (the only CE to work under IG !!!) - And Repulsion. Now, some of the others are not that great, or have a weird outferior (Ani ?? Like Pre for the Samedi...), but on the whole it's a good discipline, to say the least... > But then again, it may become a bit hard to cycle after you play it.

But that's why you play Ian Forrestal... :-) And then again, do you never play unique cards twice or more in a deck ? I love that card !! ;-)

Combine with Signet of King Saul and do whatever you want, without needing to bother with Repulsion. > Now, some of the others are not that great, or have a weird outferior (Ani > ??

But without the Signet (which I don't have anyway), in the local metagame where there are some big vampires, I have to discard it most of the time. And Repulsion is permanent. > > Now, some of the others are not that great, or have a weird outferior (Ani > > ??

What kind of combo would you imagine, with what vampires etc ?
