Q: Brother's blood and Octopod
Peter Laan
combat with a vampire of Methusela B. Can Methusela C play octopod on one of
his blood brothers to give blood brother 'a' additional strikes? Can he play
or use brother's blood?
Peter

Yes. (Octopod isn't played "on" the BBR that plays it, BTW.)

I take it that none of this is optional, right? So even if you don't want the
additional strikes, if someone else plays Octopod you have to use them. And
similarly, if you want your Blood Brother dead, you can't do much if someone
plays Brother's Blood to prevent damage?

Right. The default strike (a hand strike) will be your strike for each of
your additional strikes unless you use some other strike. You also cannot
refuse the additional strikes (like you cannot refuse to pay blood when being
rescued from torpor by another Methuselah's minion).

Right.

Was this question too stupid or doesn't anyone know the answer? LSJ? I have
searched google, and from what I can tell from the rulebook the answer is
yes.

Sorry, that post hasn't turned up on my news server yet, but I found it on
your google url. Thanks for the answer!

as far as I remeber or know really, octopod is an action modifier, and
these babies can't be played during someone else's turn, ie. they must
be played by the acting methuselah's turn. So I'm led to believe that
meth C can't play octopod for meth A's blood brother a.
