Actually, It's more like the list of the problems of their old age. Immortal Beings are not what Gaia intended. However, practicalities are not that clear cut. That doesn't mean they don't work together and that they haven't been allies in fighting against the Wyrm and for M'aat. Heck, some of them even use Mummy magic and one of them even went under the procedure to become a mummy.

Mages overall are disliked and considered dangerous by the Garou. This comes from their tendency towards being selfish assholes that don't care about anyone or anything but themselves and are prone to taking Gaia's sacred places and using them as mere recharge stations all the while considering Gaia's laws as nuisances. Mind you, the details on individual Mages can vary depending on your storyteller and the actual experiences people have together. For instance the Striders say that the first Garou rituals may have actually been created by Mages.

As for the Striders and mummies their...

... Yet the Camarilla has the perfect werewithal and control of temporal military might to blow a mystic place that doesn't even exist on any sensible map to kingdom come. Sabbat can groom people with the necessary skills and target locations within strike range. As can they pretty much spike the rations in Camp Wherever with Enough Vitae to have your own ghouled military detachment. Or even grab one pilot and then use disiciplines or simple soft pressure to get them to do what they want. They are the same in their capacity for massive destruction.

You're not being very consistant...

So you're implying Vienna is no longer standing and there is a hole where it once was? Because that's the level of engagement and colateral damage you're talking about....

[Asmodai]

How did the Second Inquistion actually attack a city like Vienna with missiles and how did they end up destroying the whole chantry that sprawled among multiple buildings and underground without destroying the center of the city?

I think you are being harsh to people who don't have a choice. Paradox doesn't want the Anarch/Camarilla stuff to be seen ever again as it's a embarrassment for them. Modipihius has not made those books nor have they been the ones that were editing them. They are all choices and decisions made by Paradox to save face and ensure Vampire is not an ongoing embarassment for them....

From Modiphius:



You don't send stuff to retail that you want to bury....

[Asmodai]

This is what I have understood as well....

[Asmodai]

What that really means, we'll have to see. I have good experiences with Modiphius and their people are quite awesome in person. I'm sure Paradox doesn't half mind the fact that they are also in charge of a lot of other Paradox properties - Mutant Chronicles, Conan, Mutant:Year Zero...

Also they've had a whole cleaning up of properties situaton already - with Infinity. There was some controversy about them removing the anime cheesecake and replacing it with more sensible Sci Fi fare....

As they note on their site https://www.modiphius.com/modiphius-...n-v5-chronicle

4 new upcoming products:

• Player's Guide (with support for alternate and oldschool playstyles)
• London Chronicle (starts with characters waking from Torpor just as SI has wiped the vampires out of London)
• Second Inquistion Book
• Starter Set

The interesting thing is that they seem to be the ones in charge of coordinating with all other licensees now - including Onyx Path

Hm, I would only allow the tracking and the damage to work against the targets of your Retribution. Seems like an item you build when you want to go on a roaring rampage of revenge and then proceed to release the spirit upon the ending of your quest.
