Which vampires appear only in starters vs. only in Boosters? White Wolf
has listed *all* of the new Vampires on their checklist, yet claims
that not all are in the Boosters.

There are 124 on the checklist and the marketing blurb says there are
"100 vampires" in the set (boosters). If this is true, the most likely
story is that the 6 new vampires in each starter are starter-only.

If true, then this kind of sucks if you want to build a Vlad
Rustovich-star-deck, since he's only in the starter once. Same for a
White Lilly (there are promos of her, i 'spose) or Harold Zettler deck,
for the same reasons. But most of the new crypt cards in the starters
are doubled-up, so it won't be an issue except for a small handful of
vampires. We can use Tupdog to tighten up the crypt a bit so that we
don't _need_ 5x Rusty or whomever, or we can just buy 5 Tzimmie
starters. I guess i wanted 5 more War Ghouls and Smiling Jack...wait, i
_do_ want those cards!

In an effort to better (actually) answer your question, the new vamps
in the starters are:

Tzimisce:
Count Vladimir Rustovich (1x only)
Duality (1x only)
Yuri Kerezenski
Radu Bistri
Lady Zara Slatikov
Laika

!Malk:
Bloodfeud (1x only)
Apache Jones
Harold Zettler, Pentex Director (1x only)
White Lilly (1x only)
Beauregard Krueller
Persephone Tar-Annis

!Brujah:
Hektor
Armin Brenner
Father Juan Carlos
Urraca
Alessandro Garcia (1x only)
Smash (1x only)

!Tremere:
Esoara
Frondator (1x only)
Janine (1x only)
Paul Cordwood
Uta Kovacs
Lucubratio

So if the new vamps are start-only, which the math seems to fit, then
these would be the non-booster vampires.

Since the Player Kit has been mentioned, any decklists for them?

Is there a conviniently located list of what comes in the Players Kit?

While we're on the subject of starter-only cards, several of the
reprinted cards that appear in the boosters have added draft
functionality only on the booster version. Can anyone confirm if the
booster versions of the following cards have added draft functionality:

Escaped Mental Patient
Guard Dogs
Harass
Helicopter
Infernal Pact
Kindred Spirits
Recure of the Homeland
Vendetta
War Ghoul

vampire.

Only requires a vampire, so you can give any discipline to any vampire.
Pretty cool, eh?

Can play the inferior level with obf.

Requires Tzimisce or !Tremere.

The old demo decks were specifically labeled that they were not legal
for tournament use (not "real" cards).

Does this apply to the new demos in the Player Kit, or has White Wolf
reversed their stance and allowed the new demos to be fully functioning
cards for VEKN purposes?

The old demo deck cards are legal for tournament play, as far as I know.
They just say "FREE DEMONSTRATION CARD" and have the Pawn expansion
symbol so they can't easily be resold, I think.

Surely you're not perpetuating that old urban myth, Eric? :-) The old demo
deck cards were labeled that they were not *for sale*. They were ruled to
be perfectly legal for VEKN tournament play.

I expect that the new demo decks are also legal in all VEKN tournaments.
And if I recall correctly, they don't have any special text saying anything
about not being for sale, either(obviously they are for sale in the Player
Kit).

Third Edition starters come in two "halves". I heard it containted one
half from each starter, presumably the one with the vampires. I also
heard that the demo decks had special versions of some of the vampires.

Though the cards are not legal for sale (or resale), they are legal for
tournament use.

Not quite - each of the four comes with 6 vampires only.

One of the vampires in each Player's Kit starter is indeed a 'special
version' - the art for each is replaced with a black-and-white sketch
version of the portrait.

(The vamps in question being Count Rustovich, Harold Zettler, Esoara
and Hektor.)

Unfortunately, I don't have a full contents list of the PK.

How does one actual use a demo deck in the course of giving a demo? Or
rather, I gather the demo deck is given to the perspective new player
to use but how is he to be instructed to use it? I seem to recall something
about the order of the demo decks being important.

Are there "demo deck instructions" given with the kit?

Thanks for the help. This set is turning out to be very complicated for
collectors. Currently, I'm leaning towards including an indicator that
these cards have Added Draft Functionality on trade.mahasamatman.com,
but I need to compile a complete list first.

I'm 90% certain I saw a draftferior on that card while Duffin Drafting
a few weeks ago.

You could be right. I was just going from memory.

That sounds right to me too. Doesn't it untap you after you equip with it,
in draft? If so that probably makes it one of the very few no-requirement
cards with a draftferior...

Sire's Index Finger has a draftferior of untapping if the action to
equip it is successful, yeah. I don't recall if it's an immediate untap
or at the end of the turn a la Leather Jacket.

Hey Greg, it might be worth noting, for the collector, that there are
some cards in 3E which appear both with (in the boosters) and without
(in the starters) a Draftferior Effect.
I definitely noticed Consanguineous Boon, but there are probably
others..

Josh means "draft effect" :-)

There are quite a few, e.g., Undead Strength, Apportation, Elder
Intervention (I believe).

On another note, it's interesting that a couple of these effects are
draftSUPeriors, i.e., the draft version is actually slightly better. For Con
Boon, you pick 2 clans; for Protected Resources, you can actually bleed for
1 without PR burning.

Yup. That's exactly why I'm asking about cards with Draftferiors.
They're different and stuff.

Thanks for your help guys, though I've concluded that
trade.mahasamatman.com/VTES/ will have to be updated with a complete
Draftferior list once I have the whole set in my hands. It's just
easier to be sure that I'm not missing anything that way. In the
meantime, the site is updated with Third Edition and the new promos.
