Hey fellow Meths, After a long and hard battle, the table is down to two meths, one pool each, and the player whose turn it is currently, knows they will lose next turn. The Meth decides to call Conservative Agitation (1 pool for each) and get a draw. Is that 1 victory point each (9.1 VTES Rules) or is it 1/2 victory point each (similar to an Intentional Draw 3.7 VEKN Rules)? Just curious... oAFLORD aka Thomas Kuster V:EKN Prince of Caledon "Of Man's first disobedience, and the fruit Of that forbidden tree whose mortal taste Brought death into the world, and all our woe."

The case is only a "draw" inasfar as the term means "tie for 1st". It is not an "Intentional Draw", which is a term used only for the conditions specified in the V:EKN rules (as far as this game is concerned, anyway). -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) VTES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

The game is over when all meths are ousted and the winner is the meth with the most VPs. If 2 or more meths have the same number of VPs, it is a tie and not a draw. From the section you quote above (9.1): "Exception: If a player is ousted at the same time that her prey is ousted, the player gets the ante and victory point but does not gain six pool." So the game is over and each gets 1 VP. Sorrow --- "Are they dead?" - Pugsly "Does it matter?" - Wednesday
