I tried looking for a ruling on this one but found no result whatsoever using "redistribution author:lsj". Can anyone help me? Redistribution Type: Action Requires: Sanguinus +1 stealth action. [san] This acting vampire gains a blood. Then move any amount of blood and equipment among the Blood Brothers in this circle. [SAN] As above, and untap this acting vampire. Karl is in torpor with 4 blood. Ilse, with 1 blood, plays Redistribution at SAN. Action successful. By virtue of the effect of the card, can 2 blood be taken from Karl to bring Ilse's up to 4 (+1 from Redistribution)? I assume yes, since card text doesn't require the other Blood Brothers to be ready. OW.

Cross table equipment sharing fun... and I thought this sort of thing got banned :) Rob

Can a Blood Brother in torpor attempt this action?

[ quoted text not captured ] If you are playing a Blood Brother deck with the same circle as someone else, you are already pretty much screwed. If you can now you Redistribution to each use the same equipment and blood (taking Redistribution as the first or last action in your turn to swap everything) you might have half a chance. Alternatively, you can also use Redistribution to take everything of theirs, further condemning an already screwed player. Previously if two Chicago Circles showed up at a table, whomever controlled Jerry controlled all of the blood between the two decks, because he is also able to "redistribute" blood among all Chicago Circle vamps.
