Card Idea: Sect Change Operation

Sect Change Operation
Master
Put this card on a vampire you control and choose a sect for xer to be. If you chose independent, this vampire may become an anarch and untap as a +1 stealth action.

As a full-price master, this seems problematic. People can already use Out of the Frying Pan and Into the Fire, but rarely do - and they're trifles. Yes, they don't provide the full gamut of options of turning a Laibon into a Camarilla vampire, but it doesn't seem compelling. Anarchs also have Galaric's Legacy, also a Trifle, as well as a variety of other options.

Really not at all convinced this would see play, as it is. Also not sure what game need it's really intended to address. In the same way that, in the real world, Into the Fire doesn't seem to address a pressing game need.

"Sects change operation" said really fast is amusing.

Other than that, you pay a full mpa to go laibon. Galarics legacy covers anarch, out of fryimg pan/into fire cam amd sabbat. If you ise this on a titled vamp, you should already build q better deck......

This card would actually do a few things differently than existing cards.
. master to make laibons
. usable on someone already that sect
. can make anarchs out of titled vampires, or enable Indy shenanigans like reckless agitation.

It is not great, but it would be useful.

Still not feeling it for a whole MPA when the other 3 effects are trifles. Id pay an mpa and a pool for anarch secession master card.

But that really means id pay a pool and an mpa to make my Zayyat undue influencd deck work......

For most of the clans for which this is relevant, Mozambique Allure already provides a solid option, with a free untap. It's also not clear why this is worth a full master phase action. The existing trifles are rarely used.

Anyone untitled who wants to go Indy for Reckless Agitation already can, using the built-in go anarch action, while still playing Villein+Giant's Blood in the same turn. They can also use Galaric's Legacy to go independent (again, if untitled). The fact that they get to be anarch as well is mostly not relevant to anything at all - they're still part of the Independent sect.

I'm not sure how a card that's worse than other existing cards that aren't played "would be useful".
