I want to say "no" because it sounds so cheesey, but for the life of me I can't think of a reason why not. So by default, sure, why not. :D

Yeah, pretty much.

If I chose to disallow it, then my reasoning would be that it is the Will of the supernatural creatures that allows them to harm each other with their strikes, not the nature of their flesh.

Ditto. I'd say it's a natural/special ability to hurt another vamp.

Then again, I think vamps are too tough in the first place, and I'm always looking for new ways to hurt 'em.

Hmm, while it might work to damage them, and they might be too stupid to turn to mist, it would never kill them. All it could do would be incapacitate them until they heal (or until their incapacitation allows them to be disposed of by standard means).

It don't matter. He smacks them against each other, they get hurt really bad, they seem to die, the Titan Juicer drops them, they regenerate, they attack him again . . . repeat

well, it takes 2 melee actions to turn to mist.

A pretty lucky Titan juicer, if he can inflict enough damage in 1-2 hits, could probably KO them before they turn to mist.

Well how far below Zero HP do you have to beat a vampire before it can no longer recover?

It's been a while since I did a check, but to my understandign they can't be killed just by inflicting damage.

-20 is the point they stop moving and can't fight back...I think. but after a point they go to a non-regen and must wait 24 hours before reforming and go hunting Titan-Juicer.
