Qs: Multiple Questions (LSJ? anyone? Bueller?)
Totengraber
1. Can Kraken's Kiss (and other ranged strength cards) be used with
Body Arsenal (and other "hand strike" modifying cards)? I say no due to
the definition of "hand strike" in the errata. But I'm inclined to
believe it just might be possible.
2. How often can one use Grendel's (or other "while X is ready" vampire
specials) ability? I say you can use it as much as you want whenever
you want because of the word "while".
3. Can Entombment be used at long range? I play it as it's like Dodge
or Combat Ends: range doesn't matter.
4. During a Blood Hunt vote (the resulting vote from diablerie, not the
card) can political action cards be used to gain votes? The rules say
that action modifiers and reactions can't be played, but no mention
(that I found) of political action cards being used to gain votes.
5. Can I wait to see if anyone will block before playing action
modifiers? (i.e. announce bleed, prey chooses not to block, play
Conditioning) If so, can blockers be announced after I play an action
modifier?
Thanks,
TAD

No. Body Arsenal is not a "hand strike" modifier. It is a hand
damage modifier. Kraken's Kiss doesn't deal hand damage, since it
is not a hand strike. Hand damage is the type of damage done by
a hand strike.

As often as you like.

You can play it, but it won't be effective at long range. [6.4.3]

Yes. Each Methuselah may burn one PA for a vote.

Yes.
Not by anyone who has already declined to block.
