Playing Cards from Your Hand?
New player, and I'm not quite sure about a few general play things yet. These questions deal with when you are allowed to play cards from your hand.

I point out relevant rules sections in my responses, for your reference.

Re: Playing Cards from Your Hand?
Thanks for the quick reply.
I'm referencing September 2015 game printing in my comments, which I would think would be kind of current :P And is also the same as the v1.7 Deluxe PDF rules online. And the rules in those printings for Turn Phases don't read like your quote. Mine specifically read: Quote:
I agree, your version is much clearer and concise, and would have been very helpful to new players. I vote that language gets added back to the next printing. :) For playing cards before game start, with the ability to start your turn with playing cards anyway, its nice to have that start phase just be mainly a character setup phase. Number of Cards in Hand - we played our first games only discarding at the charity part of turns, so sounds like we did this as intended, and I like it. I think the question came up because of the mechanic about resolving large items immediately, and having to give them to the lowest level character as well. I need to look at that a little more to see if I can better understand it. Thanks again. |

Re: Playing Cards from Your Hand?
Hmmm. I thought I had the most current PDF on my computer. . . I'll have to check (appears not, must be thinking of my other computer). However, all the rules are available here.
I'll look over the current rules and see if there aren't the necessary clarifications elsewhere. |

Re: Playing Cards from Your Hand?
The rulesheets on the website are, sadly, sometimes out of date. We're printing so much that this process occasionally slips through the cracks. I'm asking our team to compare the web to the most recent printings of all games and send updated PDFs where necessary. This has to take priority behind getting games to print, however, so it could be January before we're able to bring this page fully up to date.

Re: Playing Cards from Your Hand?
Andrew, I would have thought my September 2015 set would have been fairly current too, so I wasn't surprised the PDF was the same, but maybe you have a newer printing.
MunchkinMan, that appears to be the same rules link where I found the PDF I referenced, am I missing something you were trying to show me that was different? Also, in the rules I referenced, I'm sure it could be argued the "When You May Take Actions" table above the "Turn Phases" tries to relay this when it says, you can play items on your turn, but the language you quoted did a great job of making sure there is no confusion. I understand about the printings being more important. You guys have a really cool thing here with the direct feedback and answering questions for newbs and advanced players, so keep up the good work. Thanks again for all the help for the newbs. :) |

Re: Playing Cards from Your Hand?
Whenever I talk about the availability of the rules, I make an effort to refer back to the web page with all the rules, that's all.
My other point was that my work laptop, not my personal laptop, seems to have an outdated digital copy of the rules. |
