[LSJ] Three questions, i pray thee
franck fedele
- How EXACTLY works this damn Game of Malkav ?
Come on, the printed text is definitively confusing (does the "he or she"
refers to methuselah who have 1 less point
or what...darn)
The second :
- Can i play more than 1 copy of the same combat card
in a round ? (like, 2 Thin Blood before the range)
And third :
- if i consider that the answer of the second question would be right, could
i play several Aids from bat and/or Unflinching persistance to have as many
manoeuver ?
Thanks,
Franck from the Marseille Community.

Each other Methuselah secretly chooses a number between 1 and 5; you (the Methuselah who played the card) choose a number between 1 and 6. Each Methuselah (including you) holds a hand out with the chosen number of counters in it. (All Methuselahs)Reveal the choices simultaneously. Each Methuselah (e.g. Methuselah A) gains the amount of pool he or she (Methuselah A) chose unless another Methuselah (e.g. Methuselah B) chose exactly one less than he or she did, in which case, he or she (Methuselah A) burns that amount of pool.

Yes.

No. Card text.

Aid From Bats: no. [6.4.2] covers this explicitly.
Unflinching Persistence: yes (assuming your opponent keeps maneuvering back).

Example
(You are methuselah A) You pick 1-6 counters (say you pick 3)
Methuselahs B,C,D (or less, or more) pick 1-5 counters (say 1,5,2 counters respectively)
You all reveal the number of counters.
No one has 1 less counters than 1 (which is always safe) so that person gains 1 pool
The person who picked 2 counters loses 2 pool as someone picked 1 less counters than 2
The person (you) who picked 3 counters loses 3 pool because someone picked 2
The person who picked 5 counters gains 5 pool as no one had 4 counters.
Hope this helps.

So long as there are no restrictions on the combat card (1/round, 1/combat)

Aid from bats: no. Aid from bats commits you to a strike and you cannot play
more aid from bats until you gain a new strike (new round, additional). Since maneuvers
only come prior to the first strike aid from bats can only gain you one maneuver.
Unflinching persistance: go to town. Play as many as you like. However as noted
in card text the prevention is ony good forthe current round, and of course you cannot cancel
your own maneuvers.

So you've got the answer at last, eh ? So who was right ? ;-)
