    I think it's pretty unlikely that Dracula started in France. Although I would salute Kirindal's nerves if that was the case. I don't know if we want to try setting up Mina for today or not.

    So I'll stay in "German" Amsterdam and supply. If Mina want to use her power can join me there.

    Van Helsing draws 1 item card. Then he draws Hunter event.

    Maybe wait a turn to use Mina's sonar ping? Get a better idea of his trail after he moves one? Besides I'm feeling pretty naked here.

    Mina Supply

    edit: I can't tell if I'm a major or minor city. Only supply if I'm on a major, otherwise I'll do something else.

    What's the breakdown on the number of cards in the event deck and how many are hunter/dracula?

    Mina Harker draws 1 item card. Then she draws Hunter event. They are revealed due to her weakened state.

    Hmmm....knowing the 5th or 6th trail spot doesn't seem very helpful and not worth an action. Am I wrong about that?

    I think that Dracula might be unable to Mature it at that point? Unclear to me.

    Sorry to barge in -
    Yup, that's how Drac gets VPs & nasty stuff going, by maturing those cards at the end of his trail.
    E - As they move off the trail.
    Bad for the Hunters.

    Also, you get a get of an idea where he may be by where he has been, (not that he's a has-been....) :P

    Do events cost actions? I didn't think they did.

    No, they still can be matured. But you will get a chance to stop it.

    Are there no restrictions where Dracula can start? He can start anywhere?

    And he has to move ever turn? Since he has to put the location cards down, that means he can't visit the same spot twice?

    Any land location except his own Castle and locations already taken by hunters

    Yes, he must move. But he has some trick (power cards) which let him stay at his place. Yes, he can not visit a location which is already in his trail.

    I wanted to get one more supply in before I started up, so moving to me would be best for using the power this turn.

    Drac! I've whipped up a delicious batch of my home made blood pudding for you. Where should I send it?

    Mmm, I do like blood pudding. You can send it 100 Castle Dracula Way, Castle Dracula, Transylvania, 40345. I'll have Renfield come to the door.

    Sorry, was busy discovering I'm actually competent at TI3 in person today.

    Do we think I should use my cool train ticket to head towards Germany or Spain?

    I'm not sure moving does much good until we have some sort of lead to go on, like my power next turn or an event turning up something.

    I mean, it does and it doesn't. Obviously there's no guarantee I stumble on him.

    We can try to count on events to get us a trail but this version, from what I'm told, has Dracula relying largely on leaving vampires and other Bad Stuff behind to get ahead on the tracker.

    Still, we're probably ok for now, so I'll Supply.

    I think it's pretty unlikely that Dracula started in France. Although I would salute Kirindal's nerves if that was the case. I don't know if we want to try setting up Mina for today or not.

    So Drac is in one of: Le Havre, Paris, Strasburg. He isn't in Cologne or he would have to announce being adjacent to Helsing.

    Which means he could have started in:

    Nantes, Clermont-F, Geneva, Zurich, Nuremburg, Frankfort, Cologne (or Le Havre, Paris, Strasburg).

    It's not super important to know where he started, since there is no event there, but good to keep in mind to keep track of his possible escape routes. Drac was most likely trying to get a quick kill on Mina while she was unarmed (one bite does it). I feel a lot better about using my second turn on supplying instead of starting to move.

    Wouldn't it be possible for Dracula to back himself into a corner if he moves to a spot and the only adjacent spots have already been visited? What happens then?

    It's considered as Dracula's error, and he is punished for that severely.
