I searched through Deja-News and couldn't find this answer. If my minion has zero blood, and reacts with Forced Awakening, is the one blood payment a cost, which would prohibit the cards use, or a card effect to be ignored because all attempts to extract more blood than a vamp has are ignored except damage? -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- pheersum is eric schultheis. no commercial e-mail will be tolerated. this computer is attatched to a printer with a fax program. any spam will be subject to federal prosecution of fax machine fraud. snap into a slim-jim!! ---------------------------------------------------------------------

It is not a cost, it is a burn blood effect. Card text: "Only usable by a tapped vampire. This reacting vampire can attempt to block the acting minion and play reaction cards as though untapped. If he or she fails to block the acting minion, he or she burns an additional blood." So you can forced awakening with a vampire with zero blood, and if you fail to block, you burn a blood, no blood to burn, no problem. David Naseby

A vampire with 0 blood could use this card. AFTER the block is successful, burn a blood. Thus the vampire with 0 blood will be unaffected. -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Life is Good thanks to God Quicksilver <michae...@lmco.com>
