VtES Rules: "Street Cred" Q&A

(c) 2007 by White Wolf Inc.Lately a number of questions came up regarding "Street Cred", so here's a short "Questions and Answers" summary, for the card. Most of the information is taken from the Usenet newsgroup "rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad":

Q: Can I order the effects of "Street Cred" and "Taste of Vitae" at the end of a combat round (i.e. after the press step)?
A: Yes, you can. So you can either play "Taste of Vitae" first, if you are at 0 blood after the strike resolution or can play "Taste of Vitae" later to recover blood spent on "Street Cred".

Q: Can I play "Street Cred" if my vampire goes to torpor?
A: Yes, this is possible. This is in contrast to "Taste of Vitae" or Amaranth" which cannot be played by minions who are burned or going to torpor by cardtext. "Street Cred" does not have such a cardtext, therefore it is allowed.

Q: Can I play more than one "Street Cred" per turn?
A: Yes, but according to the card text, it can only be played by different vampires in a given turn. Neither additional rounds (e.g. via "Trap") or additional combats (via "Psyche") help circumventing this restriction that only one "Street Cred" may be played per vampire per turn.
