It only works when no minion is taken an action, like Heidelberg Castle.

Then why word it differently?

Hum... not unique... you can stack them...

Its probably less damaging to have a HoS unique location to untap ONE of them...

They also lack voting power.

It's a multiact not a block. Its once off. Not endless (unlike drawing endless Freak Drives). It only works when no minion is taken an action, like Heidelberg Castle.

You can use it during another player's master phase. Or simply between two of his actions (just like Heidelberg), so basically it can be used to block too.

Here's a nerf (and I fixed the typo in the name)

Name: Homuncular Servant
Cardtype: Retainer
Clan: Harbinger of Skulls
Cost: 1 pool
Zombie with 1 life.
[nec] You may tap this retainer at the end of a successful action this Harbinger of Skulls performs to untap him or her.
[NEC] As above, and you may tap this retainer to give this Harbinger of Skulls +1 bleed for the current action.


1 pool seems balanced for the dual effect.

And still the card is very powerful. I don't know whether you could use it to untap after the action to equip it, but two action per turn, every turn, for an inferior discipline seem strong. And that with an Heidelberg Castle may net you a lot of action. (not that the retainer can be used multiple time in a turn, but you could pass it around to alway have it on the vampire with two interesting action).

A "tap this vampire at end of turn" for the inferior effect would be in line of the poster intent of it not being useable as a wake, and it would be pretty original.

And you can still stack it...

So... jack of both sides for this retainer... tap the retainer... do something else...

Stack a couple of them for the +x bleed...
