Just checking that if for some bizarre reason you happen to have two players on the same table playing BB's of the same circle Redistribution works among ALL the BBs in play and not just your own, right?

At least the card doesn't specify this...


The set-up (2 of the same circle in same table) is never going to happen though. RIGHT?

I guess it actually works this way (and it should then become a D action against every controller(s) of the right circle(s) BB.

And yes it is difficult to imagine a case where this become relevant but if you consider Angelo (even in a list) with any BB deck using redistribution it "could" happen.

And also "if" lilith's blessing errata comes one day and it happens to allow hermanas deck, it "could" become some sort of archetype...

Yes.

It's considered acceptable at that point to set fire to the other player, as the apocalypse is probably only moments away.

Damn, should have been aware of that ruling. Me setting fire to the other BB player might have saved me in that tournament round.

Follow-up question:

Does superior Slake the Thirst "see" blood moved to a vampire via Redistribution as "blood gained"?

In other words, say Blood Brother A (capacity 4 with 1 blood) plays Redistribution. He gains 1 blood from Redistribution, and then the player decides to move 2 more blood to him from some other BB of the same circle (FROM ACROSS THE TABLE, MWAHAHA!). Sorry. Anyway, if A plays Slake the Thirst at superior after that, can he give 3 blood to some other BB (of the same circle)?


Slake the Thirst
[Action Modifier] Action Modifier
[Combat] Combat

[Sanguinus] Sanguinus

[san] [COMBAT] Only usable when this vampire gains blood. Choose another ready Blood Brother of the same circle. That vampire gains the same amount of blood from the bank.
[SAN] [ACTION MODIFIER] As above, but usable as an action modifier.

Yes. It also sees the blood you gain earlier (from the first sentence) as blood gained, and you can play the action modifier then instead if you prefer.

c). You can gain 1 blood if you play it when "This acting vampire
gains a blood". Or you can play it when you "move any amount of blood
and equipment" to gain 2.
