The new erratum below applies to all official V:EKN tournaments as

of June 1, 2000 (The standard delay for new errata). Judges are

free to use it before that time, provided they ensure that the

players are aware of the new errata before the tournament.

 

 

ERRATA

 

Life Boon doesn't provide a VP if you are ousted.

Since (as a master card) it is burned when you are ousted, this

makes some sense, but it is still errata to change the "even if

you are ousted by then" to "unless you are ousted by then".

Note: this means that you cannot get a VP for your own ousting -

you will be ousted (and Life Boon's effect will terminate)

before you can collect.

 

RULINGS

 

An individual Priscus is not tainted by the result of the Prisci

sub-referendum. (This only matters for cards like Bribes and Scorn

of Adonis that care which way individual minions voted.) A Priscus

is considered to have voted "for" or "against" (or to have

abstained from) the main referendum based on how he cast his

vote(s) in the sub-referendum, regardless of the result of that

sub-referendum. For example, if the Prisci sub-referendum is for

the main referendum and Scorn of Adonis was played, the controller

of a Priscus who voted against the sub-referendum would still

lose a pool as a result of Scorn of Adonis. This is a reversal of

a previous ruling.

 

Banishment should be more consistent. That is, Banished vampires

"remember" everything, just like contested vampires do. Additionally,

cards on Banished vampires (both Master cards and Minion cards) are

out of play and do not contest (just as the Banished vampire himself

is out of play does not contest). This ruling applies to all methods

of moving a vampire in play to the uncontrolled region (incl. The

Peace of Khetamon). Examples: gained or lost titles will still be

gained/lost when the vampire is returned to the controlled region,

and Master discipline cards do not contribute to the capacity of the

vampire while he (and they) are uncontrolled. This reverses some

previous rulings.

 

In a similar vein, leaving play (via Contesting, Banishement, or

whatever) is ruled/errata'ed to break any lingering *temporary*

change-of-control effects (like Mind Rape, Malkavian Dementia, and

Temptation), but not any permanent change-of-control effects (like

Grave Robbing and Corruption). So a demented Malkavian who is

Banished would be placed in his permanent controller's uncontrolled

region - not in the uncontrolled region of the Methuselah who

played Malkavian Dementia.

 

Illusions of the Kindred cannot be played if your Crypt is empty,

by the general ruling against playing effects that choose/target

something when there is no "something" to choose/target. This is

a reversal of the previous Illusions of Kindred ruling, making it

match the general ruling.

 

Superior Terror Frenzy ("Opposing minion pays an additional blood

when playing combat cards") doesn't affect allies (unless the

ally is playing a card "as a vampire", in which case he pays the

additional blood in life, as directed on his card). The effect is

ruled to be a "burn blood" effect, and allies are immune to

burn blood effects in general.
