I agree, it was a great read.
It is not how WOTE currently uses it, fortunately.
I do find a lot to be desired in the way many DMs handle turning, though. I've even had some DMs who herd all of the undead into a corner if the party is in an enclosed room, and allow party members to toss oil onto the backs of the undead and light them up, all with them doing nothing in response (but burn, I suppose).
The method of turning explained in the above link sounds much more in-line with how I envision the game. Some bonuses - any player can turn a vampire - and some detriments - protection doesn't extend to others until the higher levels.
Would certainly add an additional level of excitement to the game!
