Cardinal Sin: Failure of Mission [LSJ]

[James Coupe]

Here's a little something we came across today. Dave was showing us his
copy of CS:FoM, because none of the rest of us have a copy of it.
Justin read the text on it and I thought "Oh dear."

first, the text.

Card Title: Cardinal Sin: Failure of Mission
Blood/Pool: 2 blood
Clan/Discip.: n/a
Card Type: Reaction
Card Text: Requires a ready Cardinal or Archbishop.
Only usable when a Sabbat vampire without a title has
been blocked. Put this card on that vampire. Any Sabbat
vampire may enter combat with the vampire with this
card. This card can be burned by any Sabbat vampire
as a (D) action.
Artist: David Fooden
Rarity: Rare

Is the entering combat with the vampire a (D) action. Is it an action
at all? Can I just have all of my Sabbat vampires keep entering combat
with him until he dies (or even just use one vampire and keep doing it
again and again - "Again, Again! Dipsy fitewith Rex. Again, Again!"
(sorry, Teletubbies haven't yet hit America, have they)).

The card doesn't say so and it's a bloody scary though. Far more scary
than that, actually.

Entering combat is a (D) action (errata to the card).

(apologies if this goes out twice - my news system's been acting up
again and I figur maybe two is better than maybe none.)

Those crazy card writers! :-)

Entering combat with the "that vampire" is a (D) action (errata).
