Children of the Revolution

Also, any plans on making future sets mirror wod events? Like the !tremere being cut back, ravnos not interacting much with each other and being a lot in the cam, the !salubri being more common, gargoyles being non slave and cam being more common, etc

mostly, has it been brought up to represent any status quo changes from the Canon or vtm20th stuff?

a lot of opportunities for creating merged vampires have been lost. It's a game concept that dates back to the Anarch set and yet it only concerns 37 crypt cards (half a dozen of them being promos btw)

how come the introduction of such concept are so poorely exploited ? I won't even mention research and dev... oops, too late.

so if I had only one thing to ask the development team : please be consistent. please don't put out ideas for the sake of novelty, but make them interesting in the long run. then we'll be pleased

How do it relate to new vampires for expansions ?

If new vampires are developed, general consensus is that they have to fill the hole, so they often can't be advanced vampires (which belong to the same group, or at the very least playable in the same deck).

Also, vampires that actually evolve in the lore are not extremely common (apart from Player Character ). And a significant part of them are already advanced vampire : Goratrix, Meneles, Tariq, ...

well, you're absolutely right, when I read the post above my answer, I could swear it mentionned advanced petaniqua, and a strange brain device made me think about advanced vampires as an underused mechanic. Off topic, yes sir.

Ben, is it enough to compensate for a large chunk of crypt, like would it be similar to children of the night and sabbat/cam ed or not as wide ranged?

It might be possible to make a Camarilla-themed set from Children of the Revolution, since a little more than half of the vampires are Camarilla. However, I expect it will be a few years before we do a Camarilla set, since other sects have bigger needs. By the time we do a Camarilla set, we should see a bunch of new Onyx Path books, so we will have a lot more new material to draw from.

Most of my owod stuff is wraith (i was broke before vtm was oop ) but I think an ally support set could be fun. abomination that has merged petaniqua type tech, a nagaraja with wraith recruiting abilities that ignore requirements, maybe fleshing out the awesome potential of risen, as I tried to have a thread on a while ago.

maybe not right after danse, but at some point I think it would be interesting. at the very least, cooler than imbued.

The current plan is to poll the players about what set they would like to see next, but I'll leave that to our new Marketing team.

also, on the topic of cherry picking vamps , I converted nwod vamps from sourcebooks into vtes crypt cards if anyone would be interested in seeing that sort of thing.

Nobody is stopping you from posting card ideas here.

Vampires are immortal and a lot of them are very old. Lore-wise, advanced versions can be justified for pretty much anyone but a shock troop, no matter which character sheets were actually published.
