Card Idea: War for Territory

Burn a location you control to inflict 1 + x pool damage on your prey, where x is equal to the pool cost of the location.

Location theft just doesn't feel very Potence-y. You could potentially find a home for such an ability in another discipline, though, and maybe one which would still benefit combat decks. Say, Celerity still benefits cel/pot, adds cel guns, cel/tha, and Assamites, but loses the Nosferatu and Blood Brothers.

Alternatively, I could see it working for titles, say. Eminent Domain / Action / Requires a ready Archbishop or Baron. Take control of a location controlled by your prey, or burn the location to do damage. Salt to taste. That wouldn't really help that many combat decks, though - maybe an Eternal Vigilance wall.


I could just about see a location theft/turf war type card being in theme for Potence if it involved dunking a minion first. Say...
That's far from perfect, but it's the sort of thematic-space I'd be working in.

Its never worth it to pay a pool for a rush.

Lorrie does not approve :trollface:

thou withdrawn the word of mouth, my dear

first idea with a +1 stealth and a permanent +1 bleed sounds better.

Rush card with a bleed benefits.

War for Territory
Type: Action
Cost: 1 blood
Requires a Sabbat vampire.
Enter combat with a vampire controlled by your prey. Put this card in play if your prey controls a vampire in torpor after this combat. Your vampires may bleed as a D action with +1 bleed. A sabbat vampire you control may burn this card to enter combat with a minion controlled by your prey.

- bleed bonus if your prey have at least one vampire in torpor
- can provide two rush actions
- can be combined with Dragonbound/Fame
- you can have multiple copies of this card, but bleed bonuses don't stack

alternatives:
- "Enter combat with a minion controlled by your prey."
- "Your minions can bleed as {D} action with +1 bleed."
- "Your vampires can burn your prey 1 pool as {D} action."
