I remember that the last time a set of rulings came out, there was some debate about the timing of Roetschreck. It can be played in response to a strike to do aggravated damage. Is it still playable against a Pulled Fangs? Is doing a strike that does damage while under a Dawn Operation considered "attempting to inflict aggravated damage? Official answers please. :) With discussion to follow. Mike

There had been some debate when the last Rulings in the previous net.rep's era. (The conflicting rulings posted by the previous net.rep caused some discussion.) This debate was laid to rest as follows: Rotschreck can be played in response to any attempt to use aggravated damage in combat (by a vampire). It is played at the time the agg damage is announced (e.g. at strike announcement for Flame Thrower, when Claws are played, during damage resolution for DBR, and during the Press Step/End of a Round for Pulled Fangs).

"Yes" to both. -- L. Scott Johnson (vte...@regency.wizards.com) Official VtES Net.Rep for Wizards of the Coast. (*) - Subject to review by Rules Team

Is it A) The minion dealing the agg. damage that goes to torpor or B) The vampire receiving the agg. damage that goes to torpor if it is B), why must the minion attempting to use agg. damage be a vampire? With all the conflicting rulings over the years, I was just wondering where this finally landed. -Dave Green : -- [ quoted text not captured ]

It (the target of Rotschreck) landed back in 12/22/94, and has remained constant ever since. [ quoted text not captured ]
