The Ministry preconstructed deck now revealed!

Overall I think this is going to be an interesting bleeding clan though. PRO has always had great ability to push through actions. With PRE commonly available with it it will be an interesting combo.

Since the Minsitry decks contains "temple hunting ground" and "opium den", wich are/were FoS cards, I'd assume the clans are linked/renamed, just that new vampires wil ahve the V5 Disciplines.

I'm waiting on the Gangrel deck. As someone who always complains the Gangrel need more, that's the one of the 3 I want  to see....

So far, Banu Haqim and Assamites are counted as being the same.  Likewise for The Ministry and The Followers of Set.

The Giovanni, Samedi, Nagaraja, and Harbingers of Skulls as a clan, as were merged into the Hecata, and it remains to be seen if they will be backwards compatible Like the Banu Haqim and Ministry.   For their Discipline, which will be Oblivion, I imagine that BC will add Necromancy flavorings to the existing Obtenebration card pool rather than manufactue another discipline out of whole cloth.

Trochomancy and shamblers aside, is a better utility discipline than (trading sce for arms of the Abyss I to Entombment I suppose) and shouldn't be messed with,  as its pretty much a done deal for the bloodlines to keep thier bloodlines stuff. Giovanni are hopefully going to get merged with HoS style Hecata, but I dont think Giovanni need the same treatment as Banu or Ministry. They got DECIMATED. You know how the Cappadocian successors that weren't in Africa were barely existing/hiding? That's the Giovanni status in V5, so keeping Sudario Refraction out of the hands of a clan that'll probably run and or   seems safe. 

Seems like Ministry would be perfect for "death star" archetype. Grab those new barons and some 5 caps that can become barons with Fee Stakes. Play bunch of Waters of Duat (that automaticly become anarch) and couple Reckless Agitations and finish with Revolutionary Council. You got 3 locations adding stealth (anarch railroad, opium den, creepshow casino) on top of obf and votes from PRE to push throu and 1 shot ppl left and right.
