Reading through the card text: WMRH Talk Radio Cost: 1 Pool Unique Location Tap to give any minion +1 intercept for the current action. If that minion doesn't successfully block the action, burn 1 pool after the action resolves. I have the evil notion that this card could be used by a heavy stealth deck to give intercept to a prey's minion, and then stealth past anyway, adding the 1 pool loss to say a bleed of 3. Is this the case? Not to say it is a major deck-building tactic, but helps you cycle stealth and oust your prey if he/she is not wily enough.

Learn to read. *You* burn the pool, not the controller of the minion. > Not to say it is a major deck-building tactic, but helps you cycle > stealth and oust your prey if he/she is not wily enough. You could do this with London Evening Star if you really wanted to, but WMRH and KRCG are going to make you lose pool, which is stupid... Cthulukitty

Is this the case? No. The added one pool loss is a loss of your own pool (you, the controller of WMRH), not of the would-be blocker's controller's pool. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Learn to read. *You* burn the pool, not the controller of the minion. ok, no problem, you can give them intercept and let them block you in order no to lose pool... right ? :PPPP (just kidding of course) George
