Aire of Carnage - more throughput for bruise-bleed

There are many problems with bruise-bleed, but bleeding for 3 isn't one of them - any knucklehead with can do that. Furthermore, the "if vampire is in torpor" clause gives even more incentive to your prey to just say "no block", bounce the bleed, and make you choke on combat cards.

People, i keep hearing this things about combat being weak, and not winning, and blahblah.

Now i will point you towards innnumerable wins nana buruku decks made during the last year and a half or so...

Why?
1. Deep song
2. More master phases

Number 2 can be addressed with parthenons, but potence and other combat disciplines lack awesome flexibility that deepo song provides. Action that is both rush, or when nobody is there to rush, bleed....

Now, if there was a card looking something like :
action
[pot] Bleed at +1 bleed
[POT] Enter combat with a ready minion. This Vampire gets an optional maneuver in the resulting combat

Pot combat would then be, imho, more viable...

Aire of Carnage
Action Modifier
Presence
2 blood
You cannot play another action modifier to further increase the bleed for this action.
This bleed action cannot be redirected.

[pot] +2 bleed if bleed is directed against a methuselah with a vampire in torpor.

[POT]+3 bleed if bleed is directed against a methuselah with a vampire in torpor.





I like the idea mentioned here.

But I agree that bleed bounce hurts this idea so I changed the concept.

I think pre doesn't need a boost.

And it would be usable against prey who don't have a vampire in torpor.

So it wouldn't be totally useless.
