Normally DID ANYONE USE THE NEW CRYPT/LIBRARY CARDS? Yes- Sergio used Master of Time and Master of Force on his Nephanduses MOST PROMINENT VAMPIRE MINIONS (and why): 1.Nakhthorheb (Brandon)- the workhorse. Stole Goth Band and a Nephandus, bled and enticed. Broke Aranthebes controlled by predator (Sergio) 2. Pentweret (Brandon)- Stole Saiz from Sergio when Sergio tried to take the Red Sign from the center of the table using his strike. Threatened to steal Nephanduses that would bleed me while untapped 3. Antonio d'Erlette (Sergio) After a very late appearance (Sergio was crypt screwed) he started pooping out Nephanduses. MOST PROMINENT MAGE MINIONS (and why): 1. Nephandus (Sergio). Defended against Eric's Lasombra bleeders, were stolen by the Followers of Set. Comments/game write-up: Sergio (!Trem/Nephandus)> Brandon (Followers of Set bleed)> Ian (!Toreador Goth Band)> Eric (Midcap Lasombra S&B) Sergio starts out by congratulating Eric on cutting his crypt so well. Apparently Sergio got 4/5 of the non-Tupdog, non-Antonio minions in his deck. He got to work bringing out Keith Moody and Saiz while he was digging for Antonio. I brought out Nakhthorheb first with the help of Eternals of Sirius. Nakthorheb led off with a Public Trust bleed and Enticement. Sergio played The Unmasking, making Goth Band relevant, so Nakthorheb stole it. Ian later stole Goth band back. When one of my minions tried to steal Goth Band back Ian DI'd the Entrancement. Good thing I had a second one in hand! Sergio later Pentexed Goth Band so that he could recruit Carlton. Porpherion broke the Pentex because I decided that with The Unmasking in play Goth band was too important. The basic flow of the game was that I kept bleding Ian, Eric bled Sergio until he didn't have the stealth to get past his mages, and then I ousted the three in order.

The Nephandus are infernal in this storyline. Did it impact the game? Prince of Paris, France Ratings Coordinator, Rules Director

Sergio was too busy defending to take many actions that would tap his two nephanduses. Master of Time helped one never have to pay the infernal fee. He was also playing Path of Evil Revelations.
