Card idea: Big Crunch

That one is a bitch because of the wording. I spent a lot of time on it, and know it's not perfect but I like the idea.

Name: Big Crunch
Cardtype: Action
Discipline: Potence
Cost: 1 blood
[pot] Enter combat with a ready tapped minion controlled by another Methuselah.
[POT] Enter combat with 2 ready tapped minions controlled by another Methuselah. Handle both combats separately (with their own range and press state) and simulteanously (for steps), except that during each pair of strike this vampire must choose in which combat he or she strikes, and each effect affecting this vampire (but not refering to one opponent) in either combat (such as immunity, strength increasing effects, additional strikes sources, or damage prevention) is effective in both combat (when applicable). Younger vampires and allies must burn 2 blood or life to attempt to block this action.

In fact, it would be more simple to include in the rulebook two combats at a time, but for one card only, is it worth it?

The idea seem funny, but :
* may need a lot of ruling (what if I silence of death one of the combat ? what if I play Carrion Crow ? And Weather control ? and the damage from Catatonic Fear if the other combat continue ?)

Maybe.
Just to answer your questions:
- Silence of Death: you get first strike in both combats, the maneuver can be used only in the combat in which you play the card since each combat has its own range
- Carrion Crows: it affects the opponent, so it has effects only in the combat in which you play the card
- Weather Control affects you and your opponent. Resolve it in one of the combats for the opponent, and in either combat for the damage it deals you. (you do not repeat effects, they just apply in both combats; Fists of Death would give you +2 strength in both combat, not +2 strength twice)
- Catatonic Fear ends the combat in which it is played, the other combat continues.

* may not be intuitive (why your vampire that have been catatonic-feared is still in combat with the other vampire and destroying him ? Why the burst of sunloght dodged the other one ? - they are not rule problem, juste counter-intuitive situation)

Indeed, but I had many options with the maneuvers too that doesn't fit in a card text. I prefered to keep as simple as possible (it's already quite complicated)

As a clarification, i would change the superior to "2 ready tapped minions controlled by another unique Methuselah".

I don't think clarification is needed for that point.
