Hello,
i'm asking here thi question just to let be visible to everyone.

Card text: If Maila is ready during your turn, you can discard a political action card to give a minion you control +1 stealth for the current action.

I want to clarify if this sits in the template "During X do Y" because the position of the comma can lead to misunderstanding.

We had a discussion in our national group due to that, the comma open the field to a different interpretation.

Waiting for any Rules.

Thanks

Maybe I'm missing something here, but in the rules:

“During X, do Y”: The “during X do Y” template is used in several cards. When this template is used, only one Y can be done per X with this card. For instance, you may move blood from your vampire to your pool with Vessel only once per unlock phase.

And on the card text:

If Maila is ready during your turn, you can discard a political action card to give a minion you control +1 stealth for the current action

I don't see any ground for the discussion. The comma here is in exactly the same spot as in the rules.

Can this be confirmed by Vincent / Ankha?
I am not debating the during x, y ... rationally ok, emotionally NO!

It looks like Maila would need a different wording in order to be able to do what one might think she could do ...

Compare with Montano or Masika adv. for example:
Montano: During an action, he can burn 1 blood to give a minion you control +1 stealth.
Masika adv.: Once each action, Masika can discard a political action card to give a minion you control +1 intercept.

so she actually wasn't a vampire to be enthousiast about and use as star vamp (my two cents).
Thanks for the confirmation Vincent!
