About The Eldest Command Undeath
The Eldest Command Undeath, Political action, designed by Roel Wielinga first released in November 2005 in the set Legacies of Blood.
**The Eldest Command Undeath** fits a Laibon political deck that can reliably pass referendums and wants to remove a smaller vampire controlled by its prey—especially one that blocks repeatedly or provides important support. Its zero-cost burn effect is strong when the target qualifies, but the prey-only restriction, capacity limit, and prohibition on gaining blood make it a situational choice rather than an automatic inclusion. **Banishment** is generally the more flexible removal vote because it can target a vampire outside your prey, though it does not burn that vampire outright; **Kine Resources Contested** is usually better if your main goal is simply to oust your prey. I’d play The Eldest Command Undeath as a one- or two-copy option in a vote-heavy Laibon deck, not as its main political action. The text you supplied does not define **X**, so its exact value is important to that decision.
