Rules question : Fate Amria / Wave lethargy
Mochuda
the vampire with fata amria can get rid of it by not untapping during her
untap phase.
Can she still get rid of it if she is prevented from untapping (sensory
deprivation eg) ? I believe she can't 'cause she can't do something "instead
of" as she can't do the 1rst thing. It would be paying with money you don't
have (hey ! who said "it works sometimes" ! :-))
- Wave of lethargy
"maneuvers and presses cost opposing vampire an additional blood to play".
What happens face to a sup flash ?
I suppose vampire burns an additionnal blood when the flash is played (for
the maneuver), but does she still burns an other blood if the optional press
is used ?
Is "to play" synonymous to "to use" or does it mean you have to play a card
from your hand ?
I believe a Mob connections press or a IRG maneuver would not cost 1 blood.
Am I right ?
If so what for such an optional press ? Is it played or used ?
Maybe i'm just wrong on "to play" and it simply implies the vampire
maneuvers or presses, whatever the means.
Sorry if these questions have already been answered...

Correct. The victim burns it "instead" of untapping - not by merely "not
untapping".

The card costs an additional blood.

The latter.

Yes.

The card that grants it is "played".

Right. You need to be able to untap to be able to give up that untap
for an effect.

One blood is paid when the card is "played". ie, when it is moved
from your hand into the game for the maneuver.

No.
Only when the card is "played".

"To Play" is only when you move a card from your hand into the game.
"Using" an effect of a card already in play is not "playing" it.

> Am I right ?
Yes.
> If so what for such an optional press ? Is it played or used ?
It is only used.

Nope.
