No.

It is lost.
Combat cards which grant a maneuver only grant that maneuver in the
same round without explicit card text otherwise.
[6.4.2 Determine Range]
"If a combat card played by a minion has a maneuver as part of an
effect, the maneuver must be used that round of combat."

Not on the same action.

"A minion cannot play the same action modifier more than once during a
single action."

No.

If played as a combat card = Yes.
If played as an action modifier = No.
>and if not can I also not use two different effects on the same card?
.
No.
>6) The same question, but then for reaction cards
Same answer.
[1.6.3.5 definition of reaction card]
"A minion cannot play the same reaction card more than once during a
single action. "

So if I play it twice as a combat card, all my vamps gain double the
blood on the one I'm diablerizing and the one actually playing RotB gets
triple the blood?
