Heidelberg Castle, Germany VS Blood Hunt Referendum

Dear all, The basic question is can I use Heidelberg Castle, Germany before a Blood Hunt Referendum? Same question but during the Blood Hunt Referendum? Official card text of that Location : Name: Heidelberg Castle, Germany AKA: Heidelburg Castle, Germany [DS:U2, FN:PR, KMW:PAl, LoB:PI, 25th:1] Cardtype: Master Cost: 2 pool Unique location. Lock to move blood, equipment and/or retainers between any two ready vampires you control. Cannot be used during an action. Case 1: Vampire A diablerizes Vampire B by the rulebook action. May I use the master before/during the BloodHunt Referendum ? Case 2: Vampire A diablerizes Vampire B by Amaranth. Name: Amaranth [Jyhad:U, VTES:U, CE:U, Anarchs:PAG, BH:PTo2, Third:PTz, KoT:U] Cardtype: Combat Only usable by a vampire who can commit diablerie. Only usable when the opposing vampire should go to torpor. Diablerize the opposing vampire instead. Not usable by a vampire being burned or going to torpor. May I use the master before/during the BloodHunt Referendum ? I would think no because Amaranth is a combat card and I would understand that Combat always belongs to an action (action's effect of Combat after a successful block attempt or even Hidden Lurker) Cas 3: Vampire A resolves successful Abactor's action Name: Abactor [Promo-20090401] Cardtype: Action +1 stealth{} action. {Hunt at +4 hunt}. After successful resolution, a referendum is called to call a blood hunt on this vampire (independent of the action, just as if {they} had committed diablerie). May I use the master before/during the BloodHunt Referendum ? Thanks in advance, Regards, Rémi. I am Rémi Cavaillé (), Barcelona (Spain). I was the Prince of Lyon (France) around 2003.

No. The blood hunt is still part of the action. See also www.vekn.net/forum/rules-questions/39816-ec-2012-can-you-answer-these?start=6#39843

Hello, Thanks a lot, I haven't found that great post before you put that link. Would.it be possible to update the official card text to erase the last sentence which is the useless and confusing part, please? Regards, Rémi. I am Rémi Cavaillé (), Barcelona (Spain).

Hi Vincent, I think that part since the question came from it Name: Abactor [Promo-20090401] Cardtype: Action +1 stealth{} action. {Hunt at +4 hunt}. After successful resolution, a referendum is called to call a blood hunt on this vampire (independent of the action, just as if {they} had committed diablerie). As it says after the resolution and the referendum is independant of the action, lower English level players may be confused Regards, Rémi. I am Rémi Cavaillé (), Barcelona (Spain).
