Rules Team Rulings — RTR 11/05/2018

A bit surprisingly after the recent Rules Team Rulings of March 3rd, 2018, another RTR has been released on May 11th, 2018 (along with preview of the Gargoyles card for the Lost Kindred expansion). In fact, the RTR 11/05/18 contains of three parts, that is

• Rule change #1: Anarch is a sect.
• Rule change #2: Hunt
• Rule change #3: Limited effects

While the last two are merely clarifications/cleanup of existing effects, the first change is certainly the one with the biggest impact. Being Anarch is no longer a trait (like Black Hand), but Anarch is now a sect like Camarilla or Sabbat. In the past, belonging to the Independent sect was a prerequisite, now Anarchs and Independent are strictly separated, because a vampire can only belong to one sect at a given time.

You can read the full text of the RTR down below as well as in the VEKN.net forum (with the accompanying discussion).

With the official announcement that new VTES expansion  has been released on May 5th, 2018, Black Chantry has provided the list of cards contained in the new expansion. (Card lists are also available on vekn.net for the two reprint packs of Keepers of Tradition). What was lacking so far, were the actual card texts for the new cards that come with Lost Kindred.
