VtES Rules: "Anarch Convert" Q&A

Lately a number of questions came up regarding Anarch Convert, 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: Is the "Anarch Convert" really unique?
A: Yes, the "Anarch Convert" is unique. Other crypt cards like "Aabbt Kindred" or "Hermana Hambrienta Mayor" have an explicit card text saying that they are not unique. "Anarch Convert" lacks this text and is therefore unique.

Q: When I bring a new the "Anarch Convert", and there is already another one in play, can I use one of the special abilities before the contest starts?
A: Yes, you can use one of the the "Anarch Convert" effects (and removing the new "Anarch Convert" from the game) when the card enters play, even if another "Anarch Convert" is already in play and would contest your incoming copy.

Q: Can I make more than one non-titled vampire (already in play) an anarch in the same influence phase by moving a corresponding numbers of "Anarch Converts" to my ready region?
A: Yes.

Q: When I have no non-titled vampire in my ready region, can I move an "Anarch Convert" to the ready region, remove him from the game to make himself an anarch, in order to draw another card from the crypt?
A: No, you cannot do this since the "Anarch Convert" is removed from the game and is therefore not a valid target for making him an Anarch.
