There was a recent thread discussing this, but was somewhat off-topic.

The Carrier negative Infected quality; Does this quality apply to each strain (HMHVV I, II, III), or to each Infected type (Banshee, Vampire, Loup-Garu, etc.).

The general consensus seems to be that it applies to each of the three strains, & I would be inclined to agree with that. However, reviewing the Infected rules, it strongly implies that a Vampire is unable to create a Banshee, & vice-versa, without the appropriate Carrier quality. It further implies that HMHVV I (Vampire) is different from HMHVV I (Goblin).


If anyone can provide a quote or reference to clarify this, it would be greatly apreciated. I would also like developer input on the intent.
