Any reason to use 2 different templates? This feels more elegant to me:Ankha wrote: Power of One

On a technical point, Ankha has indicated that, going forward, bracketed text will only be used for reminder text that can be removed without changing the meaning of the card. So your card says:
[dom] +1 bleed
[DOM] +1 bleed

In other words, following this technical point, cards that have "limits" will now have parenthetical reminder text that don't change the meaning of the card, whereas cards without limits will still have clauses explaining there's no limit and therefore alter the meaning of the card.
I think Boris the Blade's point is that this inconsistency is not elegant, and if we're going to include parenthetical single-word "reminder" text, it's probably better to just treat those parenthetical single-words as keywords with the associated reminder text in the rulebook.
I mean, if it were me, and I had to write a FAQ explaining that something that looks like a keyword isn't a keyword, I would re-evaluate whether that "reminder text" is doing more harm than good. But that's just me, and I definitely have the proclivity to over-inflate minor issues like this.

Also, this change unifies the presentation of Additional Strikes and bleed modifers, Your proposal means that Quickness, for example, will read
[CEL] Additonal strike (unlimited). A vampire may only play one Quickness each round.
You don't see that causing confusion?
