  • Lilli 4: Villien and Giant´s Blood on Graham Gottesman!

  • Marcus 4: Bulscu Advanced.
  • Lilli 5: Consagianus Boon for Ventrue, helping both Ventrue decks.
  • Robin 5: Rurik equips with Raven Spy.

  • Lilli 6: Massive bleeds and votes brings Robin down to 2 pool.
  • Lilli 7: Ousts Robin.
  • Henrik 8: Steals the remaining Mithras-items with stealth, gets Mithras into play!
  • Marcus 8: Hardestadt bleeds Henrik for 6, is deflected to Lilli, but she deflects back! Mithras don´t dare to block Hardestadt, so Henrik is bleed for 6. But a block would have been smarter, because Mithras in then rushed into torpor by Hardestadt.
  • Henrik 9: Launches with heavy bleeds into Lilli, who he expects is all locked down with no wakes, but SURPRISE: She has both On the Qui Vive, Deflection and 2nd Tradition on hand, so failure for Henrik. He now REALLY thinks Lilli has no more wakes or unlocks, so Mithras tries to leave torpor himself. But SURPRISE: Victor Donaldson blocks with yet another 2nd Tradition – and diablerizes Mithras! With his last action, Henrik employs Carlton Van Wyk, and burns him to burn Victor Donaldson the diablerist!
  • Marcus: Ousts Henrik.

Result: Lilli 3 vp (gw), Marcus 1 vp.

4. Kari - Nosferatu anarch bigcaps with AUS
5. Jonas - Shemti + Nosferatu Animalism wall

  • Kari´s Nosferatus euipped with all items and got Mithras into play, but are then quickly ousted by Ivan.
  • Chris did a Kiss of Ra + Graverobbing on Jonas’ star vampire Shemti!
  • Chris stole Ivan´s Thumicia with Graverobbing! But Ivan brings out another copy to contest her, which in the long run prevents Chris from ousting his prey. That contest goes on until Ivan has only 1 pool.
  • Robin´s Tzimisces misses the oust as his vampires are locked in hunt-loop because of Operation Antigen.
  • Special note: Ivan plays Succulent Vitae in his deck! (Has anyone EVER used it before?)

Result: Game timed out with Ivan 2.5 vp (gw), Chris 0.5 vp, Robin 0.5 vp 











Game 4: 

1. Marcus - Ventrue Hardestadt & Bulscu multi-rush
2. Jacob - Malkavian vote
3. Henrik - Malkavian vote/bleed
4. Kim - Toreador Aching Beauty & Matthew toolbox
5. Lilli - Ventrue toolbox

  • Jacob 2: Donny Kowalczyk.
  • Kim 2: Flavio Gonzales.
  • Marcus 3: Jackson Asher equips with Ritual Goblet.
  • Lilli 3: Queen Anne (group 6) - the true Prince of London?!
  • Marcus 4: Jackson Asher equips with Phrygian Cap.
  • Kim 4: Equips with two uncontrolled Mithras-items.
  • Jacob 4: Makes a weird misplayed Banishment with Donny Kowalczyk - notices too late that the only legal target is Marcus´ Jackson. If this referendum is successful, Jacksons two Mithras-items will be out of play, this protecting them from being stolen! Marcus loves this an votes for, forcing Kim to desperately burn the Edge to vote it down. Puh!
  • Marcus 5: Hardestadt and Jackson gets three Mithras items, stealing the last one from Kim, who don´t want to block the strong Ventrue. Marcus gets Mithras into play!
  • Kim 5: A second Aching Beauty on Flavio.
  • Lilli 5: After a lot of Govern the Unaligned, now has four strong minions: Queen Anne, Alexa Draper, Alice Chen and Victor Donaldson.
  • Marcus 6: Mithras gets Preternatural Strenght! He can now strike for 6 using the Island of Yiaros!
  • Jacob 6: Donny Kowalczyk burns the Island of Yiaros! The whole table collectively sigh in relief. Marcus whines that he didn't even get to use it. 
  • Henrik 6: Makes a weird play: Brings Graham Gottesman into play, thus contesting his own city title (Miami) on Gilbert Duane! (We almost got this right. The correct ruling is: You can contest your own title. Both titles will be contested. You'll have to decide to pay 1 blood or yield for each vampire in your next unlock phase. Then you'll get the title back on the non-yielding vampire on the following unlock phase. So not a very smart move if you need your titles in play!)
  • Kim 6: Steals 3 pool from Marcus crosstable, playing Bribes to get everyones votes and gets a Voter Captivation for 7!
  • Marcus 7: Jackson Asher takes 1 damage from Operation Antigen. Marcus ousts Jacob with bleeds.
  • Henrik 7: Ousts Kim with bleeds for 10.
  • Lilli 8: Anarchist Uprising does 4 damage to all the remaining Methuselahs (herself, Marcus and Henrik).

Result: Marcus 3 vp (gw), Henrik 2 vp.
