advice on phasing out WoD in favour of the Dresden Files?

I've seen big time Munchkins love the system though because they get to 'game' it while role-playing hard. Others, meh, don't like it at all since you have to accept your character having problems to get the juicy FATE points. Honest conversations about this will go miles and miles to seeing if they would even want to play this game.

That is the System for the Dresden Files, yes? See, THAT makes sense to be, a trade-off.

He takes double damage from sunlight and fire :)
Use the Kincaid approach
We blow up the building
we pour gasoline on the ruins and light them on fire.
Then we blow up the building again.

If it's any consolation, this bit at least isn't valid by the WoD rules as written, since it would involve stacking two different character templates (Psychic and Vampire). Instead, by RAW, the PC should have lost the Merits for the psychic powers when he became a vampire, and (at the GM's discretion) the player might then have recovered some of the experience points spent on the old abilities as bonus XP towards similar Disciplines.

Well that is a fish of a different colour!
Me and my expert-GM are looking into this and trying to find a way to save the campaign, if at all possible.

How did your expert-GM miss these blatant characters?
or wait.. is he the one who made the cheaterang vampire?
beachhead1973:
no, he's an expert cause me knows the basic system best, still mystified by combat though.
and he has a aversion to "GM-says-so" rulings and anything that seems like it is "Ruining The Game" for the player. So if you say to him "it's legal, I have lots of experience with thie system, I can do this, the rules say I can". He just shrugs it off.
When I GM. if i don;t like the rules or if they seem stupid, I change them, but even i have my limits.
