Name: Your politics are mine Cardtype: Political Action Requires a priscus, cardinal or regent Remove from the games X political action from any other Methuselahs ash heap. Then allocate X points among two or more other Methuselahs. Successful referendum means each Methuselah burns 1 pool for each point assigned. It could be useless or very very powerfull, but less and less each time you call it. If the vote fail or is canceled the next one will be weak. The "other Methuselahs" condition limit the power of the card not usable in duel and not in your ash heap. If one of the other Methuselahs had lots of political card in his ash heap that mean he play politics and that mean you wil have to discuss with him. Excepted "legacy of pander" and "lassombra presence" there are few sabbat voting decks. This card could create an explosion or make nothing (depanding of the metagame), but it I think could only be a "surprise" card with one or two copy maximum in some particular deck. Thoughts?

So, you must have significant political power to make this pass (since if you don't, you're not too likely to pass it), and you need other player playing a significant number of political action. It's way too narrow. Also, I can't see a use of removing political action ; political action + Ashur is not exactly a problem. So, it's not even a anti-ash heap meta. A reaction that give vote on number of political action removed could possibly see use, and would make Delaying Tactic a bit less dominant as anti-political.
