I have questions about two cards from Sabbat, first a vampire: Dominique Ventrue Antitribu Capacity: 7 Disciplines: ani AUS dom FOR vic Sabbat: As a (D) action, Dominique may put a vandal counter on a location. If a location has a number of vandal counters equal to its cost, burn it. Artist: Tim Bradstreet & Grant Goleash What's up with 0-cost locations? a) Instant burn when Dominique enters play. b) Cannot be burned by Dominique. c) Is burned when the first vandal counter is put on it. Personally I think c) is the most reasonable, while a) would be too harsh and b) would make no sense (Why would some locations be impossible to vandalize?). The other is a library card: Scouting Mission Action Dominate Normal: maneuver or press with weapons. Superior: This action is at +1 stealth. A younger, uncontrolled vampire gains 2 blood from the blood bank. Artist: Scott Fischer Rarity: Common Exactly how are the inferior version supposed to work? a) Provided the minion have a weapon, he/she can make a maneuver or press. b) ??? I guess a) is the way is supposed to be, but I don't like the wording (not implying that my wording is any better).

You don't have to wait for an official ruling for your first question: it is pretty straightforward: Kristofer Wårell thoughtfully stated: : I have questions about two cards from Sabbat, first a vampire: : Dominique Ventrue Antitribu [snip] : What's up with 0-cost locations? In her text (on the card, not the spoiler :)) it says that 0 cost locations are the same as 1 cost locations.

The actual card has a statement in parenteses that says "or 1 vandal counter if it has no cost." > >a) Instant burn when Dominique enters play. >b) Cannot be burned by Dominique. >c) Is burned when the first vandal counter is put on it. This is correct as the actual card test is written. > >Personally I think c) is the most reasonable, while a) would be too >harsh and >b) would make no sense (Why would some locations be impossible to >vandalize?). > >The other is a library card: > >Scouting Mission Action Dominate > Normal: maneuver or press with weapons. Again I assume this is from the spoiler. Actually the inferior test is: D Bleed with +1 bleed. > Superior: This action is at +1 stealth.
