I got a question about this. Lets say Player A declares a bleed action with his vampire. Seeing that it is only 1 bleed.. I say go ahead, I'm not blocking. He thens declares that he want s to pump up the bleed with Threats. Can I now declare a blocking action with one of my minions? The FAQ seems to suggest otherwise. But the V:TES rule book says that once I pass up the opportunity to block, that action cannot be further modified. Thats seems unfair to me as it makes stealth/bleeding decks very powerful in my opinion but I guess there must be a reason. Please help me clarify this pls. Thanks ************************************************************************************************ Caught between that world and this, I'd trade my soul for a Bond's girl kiss.

No. The decision to not block is final. > The FAQ seems to suggest otherwise.

Thanks for the info.
