So basically, "you can play cards as if..." only matters for master cards you play. "She can play cards as if..." only matters for minion cards she plays.


In the discord it was pointed out that this interpretation means that the Shard, only affects master cards, since it uses the text "you".

Name: The Shard, London
[FoL:1]
Cardtype: Master
Cost: 2 pool
Unique location.
If you have the Edge, you can lock this card to reduce the cost of a card you play by 2 pool or blood. Vampires can steal this location as a (D) action; Ventrue get +1 stealth during that action.

2/ the card doesn't require a Blood Brother to play (no clan symbol in the requirement bar, doesn't state "only usable by a Blood Brother").


Is card text saying “Only usable by X”and “Requires X” equivalent to requirement X on the attribute bar when it comes “Y can play cards as if meeting X”?

So basically, "you can play cards as if..." only matters for master cards you play. "She can play cards as if..." only matters for minion cards she plays.

Does this mean that the below ruling is reversed?

Does this mean The Shard can only be used when “you” play master cards and isn’t applicable to minion cards?

Requirement can also be stated in the text box "require an anarch vampire" : "require a prince or justicar"

No, this is a wrong interpretation. Minion cards are indeed both played by the Methuselah and the minion. Camaraderie is played by both you and Angelo. However, since Mata Hari isn't playing the card, she doesn't interact with any of it since requirements to play a card can only be met by the minion playing the card (here: Angelo).
The Shard on the other hand doesn't bother about requirements, it reduces the cost of cards you (or your minions) play.
Meeting requirements to play a card and paying the cost are two different things.

2/ the card doesn't require a Blood Brother to play (no clan symbol in the requirement bar, doesn't state "only usable by a Blood Brother").


Is card text saying “Only usable by X”and “Requires X” equivalent to requirement X on the attribute bar when it comes “Y can play cards as if meeting X”?

Yes, since it put a restriction on whether the card can be played and by whom.

So basically, "you can play cards as if..." only matters for master cards you play. "She can play cards as if..." only matters for minion cards she plays.

No, see above.
