The official card texts files have been updated today. They contain all the cards with the latest cardtexts and errata up to the 25th anniversary edition plus the promo cards that have been released lately (including the CC Barons, Nefertiti advanced and Tangle Atropos' Hand). Some cards that only appears in the Berlin Anthology set and haven't been reprinted since are identified as "LARP" -- they will be reprinted at some point. The BETA version of the card texts is discontinued. Its purpose was to detect errors in the reworded cards before they get to print but it has not been productive enough and has led to a general confusion. From now on, only the official card texts will be published on the VEKN website. If you have been using the BETA version, please switch to the official files (www.vekn.net/card-lists). We are working on translating VTES to foreign languages. Rewording the cards beforehand has been extremely useful, and I would like to thank everyone that helped reporting errors.

Thanks for this A handlful of notes on the current cardlist: "Free States Rant" text's reads "No {4 or more} points can be allocated to each vampire", which isn't particularly intelligible. Antihelos, Seeds of Corruption and Temptation of Greater Power still don't have "Added to the V:EKN banned list" notes, unlike the other banned cards. The Dracon's text uses "Flight [flight]", while all other vampires use "Flight [FLIGHT]" Various of the promo pack vampires text's have ot been updated - Nergal still says "may reduce", Nergal (Adv) hasn't been updated to the "While Nergal is adcting text" (and probably other cases). The Promo Pack 1 cards release set isn't marked in the cardlist. The promo date for Tangle differs significantly from the one given on the Black Chantry promo page (1st of May vs 14th of June) The Grand Prix Entrancement promo isn't noted in the cardlist. -- National Coordinator South Africa

Oh, and Jack Dawson Advanced uses "fast strike" -- National Coordinator South Africa

All fixed. Thanks! Prince of Paris, France Ratings Coordinator, Rules Director

I did an update today to add the missing changes on cards that were impacted by the rule changes about Anarch as a sect and bleed modifiers. Prince of Paris, France Ratings Coordinator, Rules Director

Error I just noticed Jacko has lost the "during the first round" restriction on his additional strike > Old wrote: > Sabbat: Jacko gets an optional additional strike during the first round of combat. This does not count against his additional strike effect limit for that round > vs > Current wrote: > Sabbat: Jacko gets {1 optional additional strike that does not count against the limit}. > Also, are we going to see an update with the recent First Blood updates (like the use of employer on J.S.

For anyone interested; 308 cards had their text changed in total. A lot of the beta text was simply merged into the official text (which is a positive). A full list of the changed cards is online here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sxkESdnq9tNUP59HhG-lyVltnTXesfJGwMpP2wQlqfM/edit?usp=sharing Amaranth Deck Building Tool : VTES NZ : VTES ANZ Facebook

In the Google Spreadsheet, I'm not seeing text changes for some cards. For example, I'm not seeing the difference in Ancilla Empowerment or in Earth Meld. Traveller Card Game

I found those bugs in CSV file. Entrancement and Charisma missing new illustrator (Ginés) Charisma still have old text instead the new one. Vidal Jarbeux mention Anarch as trait. Zoo Hunting Ground artist order is wrong. Form of Mist, Parity Shift and Pentex(TM) Subversion need a space between artist names. Some cards still have Cold Iron text, this is no longer used right? There is a rule change for it? I can't find anything about it on rulebook. Fernando Cesar - Sydnelson LackeyCCG and OCTGN VtES Mantainer Prince of Rio de Janeiro Powerbase Rio de Janeiro

After the most recent update, the csv zip file link 404's for me. I see that "Rego Motus" has been renamed to "Rego Motum" - this seems like a change that should be more widely announced. Also, the last update is missing the changes made to the print on demand Assamite / Quietus cards. -- National Coordinator South Africa
